In some languages the terms "Security" and "Safety" are the same.

Definitions

European Definitions

2009/72/EC
Security means both security of supply and provision of electricity, and technical safety. [1]


ENISA

Security comprises all aspects related to defining, achieving, and maintaining data confidentiality, integrity, availability, accountability, authenticity, and reliability (refers to ISO/IEC WD 15443-1). [2]


Other International Definitions

ITU-T

Security is used in the sense of minimizing the vulnerabilities of assets and resources. [3]


Sécurité: Le terme "sécurité" est utilisé dans le sens d'une minimisation des vulnérabilités d'actifs et de ressources. [4]


Seguridad: El término "seguridad" se emplea en el sentido de reducir al mínimo las vulnerabilidades de los activos y los recursos. [5]


NATO

The measures necessary to achieve protection against espionage, sabotage, subversion and terrorism, as well as against loss or unauthorized disclosure. [6]


National Definitions

Cameroon (Cameroun)

Sécurité: situation dans laquelle quelqu’un, quelque chose n’est exposé à aucun danger. Mécanisme destiné à prévenir un événement dommageable, ou à en limiter les effets. [7]


Czech Republic

Vlastnost prvku (např. informační systém), který je na určité úrovni chráněn proti ztrátám, nebo také stav ochrany (na určité úrovni) proti ztrátám. [8]

Property of an element (e.g. an information system) which is at a certain level protected against losses, or also a state of protection (at a certain level) against losses. [9]


Bezpečnost IT zahrnuje ochranu důvěrnosti, integrity a dosažitelnosti při zpracování, úschově, distribuci a prezentaci informací (IT security covers protection of confidentiality, integrity and availability during processing, storage, distribution and presentation of information).

Finland

Turvallisuus: tila, jossa uhkat ja riskit ovat hallittavissa.

Security is a condition in which the threats and risks are controllable. -unofficial translation- [10]


India

Security is the quality or state of being protected from unauthorised access or uncontrolled losses or effects. [11]

Absolute security is impossible to achieve in practice and the quality of a given security system is relative. Within a state-model security system, security is a specific “state" to be preserved under various operations.

Japan

セキュリティ:
(1.) システムを防護するためにとる手段。
(2.) システムを防護するための手段を確立・維持管理に起因するシステムの条件。
(3.) 認可されていないアクセスや認可されていないアクセス、もしくは、偶発的な変更／破壊／損失が無いシステム資源の状態。

(Cyber) security is:
(1.) Measures taken to protect a system.
(2.) The condition of a system that results from the establishment and maintenance of measures to protect the system.
(3.) The condition of system resources being free from unauthorized access and from unauthorized or accidental change, destruction, or loss. [12]


United States

NIST
Security is a condition that results from the establishment and maintenance of protective measures that enable an enterprise to perform its mission or critical functions despite risks posed by threats to its use of information systems. [13]

Protective measures may involve a combination of deterrence, avoidance, prevention, detection, recovery, and correction that should form part of the enterprise’s Risk Management approach.

DoD
Security:
1. Measures taken by a military unit, activity, or installation to protect itself against all acts designed to, or which may, impair its effectiveness. (JP 3-10)
2. A condition that results from the establishment and maintenance of protective measures that ensure a state of inviolability from hostile acts or influences. (JP 3-10)
3. With respect to classified matter, the condition that prevents unauthorized persons from having access to official information that is safeguarded in the interests of national security. [14]



Standard Definition

IETF

(1) A system condition that results from the establishment and maintenance of measures to protect the system.
(2) A system condition in which system resources are free from unauthorized access and from unauthorized or accidental change, destruction, or loss.
(3) Measures taken to protect a system. [15]
