"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature" ­­
— Helen Keller


If only those words spoken by the great American author Helen Keller still held true today, life would be so much simpler and enjoyable. But the reality we must face is that security is hardly a superstition; it is a matter that concerns all of us at all levels.
Of course, we are all responsible for our individual security, be it protection against street crimes or securing our home against an unwanted intruder. But security as a whole is much larger than this. It involves both industrial security and national security.
