For organizations,business security comprises the measures taken to protect people, data,physical assets, and financial and other assets. These measures help to create asafe workplace and to reduce risks. Business security further seeks to combat thevarious security risks faced by organizations. When these risks become a reality,people and organizations suffer. Examples include workplace violence, terrorattacks, computer hacking/data loss, disruption of the supply chain, and top managementengaged in illegal acts. Moreover, these “problems” draw intensecoverage from the news media, which are drawn to singular, negative events.Negative publicity resulting from incidences that might have been avoided furtherharms an organization by damaging its reputation, which is a valuable, ifintangible, resource. Business security clearly involves high stakes.
