Security is the degree of protection against danger, loss, and criminals. Security has to be compared and contrasted with other related concepts Safety, continuity, reliability. The key difference between security and reliability is that security must take into account the actions of people attempting to cause destruction. Security as a state or condition is resistance to harm. From an objective perspective, it is a structure's actual (conceptual, and never fully knowable) degree of resistance to harm. That condition derives from the structure's relationship (vulnerability, distance, insulation, protection) to threats in its environment. From a subjective perspective, security is the perception or belief that a valued structure has sufficient objective security. The subjective meaning of security as "freedom from anxiety or fear" resonates in the origins of the word. Latin "Se-Cura," means literally "without care" as in "carefree." Security as a form of protection are structures and processes that provide or improve security as a condition. The Institute for Security and Open Methodologies (ISECOM) in the OSSTMM 3 defines security as "a form of protection where a separation is created between the assets and the threat. This includes but is not limited to the elimination of either the asset or the threat. In order to be secure, either the asset is physically removed from the threat or the threat is physically removed from the asset.[1].
