The Role of Security Security is like adding brakes to cars. The purpose of brakes is not to stop you; it is to enable you to go faster. Brakes help avoid accidents caused by mechanical failures in other cars, rude drivers, and road hazards. Better security is an enabler for greater freedom and confidence in the Cyber world.
