# Security and Safety
Security and safety encompass the practices and measures aimed at protecting individuals, assets, and environments from harm or threats. Security focuses on the prevention of intentional violations, such as breaches or attacks, while safety addresses the protection from accidental harm or unintended incidents. Both areas require a comprehensive approach, integrating physical, procedural, and technological controls to mitigate risks effectively.
In relation to data, the analysis and management of information are crucial for assessing risks and informing the development of protective strategies. Data-driven insights enable the implementation of measures that enhance both security and safety, ensuring resilience and continuity.
