Safety and 'troublesomeness'

2007-04-15 20:02:15 · answer #1 · answered by Anonymous · 0 0

Security is really a balance between 2 forces, the first is saftey (security) and the other is functionality (usefullness).

As we increase the security of something the functionality goes down (or to maintain the functionality the cost will go up).
An example is that when we run anti-virus and filewall software on our computers, the speed of the computer decreases.

If we makes things more functional the security can go down.

An example of this as the Internet and Internet enabled software becomes more powerful we have more and more security threats. Mobile phones are becoming more powerful, so will soon be exposed to security problems.

When people who are not experienced in security make security plans they are often very restrictive. Often requiring huge resources and creating vast problems. Because that generates resentment people often work around the security measures.

For example, in recent years the post september 11 tight security has become very relaxed.
