Safety, security, and information security. An integrated approach for enhancing integrative security

Abstract

Security - whether protection against accidents (safety), sabotage (security), or cyberattacks (information security) - must be ensured at all times, especially in critical infrastructures. Safety and (information) security share the common goal of protecting people, the environment, and facilities. Their measures must be developed and implemented in an integrated manner so that safety does not compromise security and vice versa. In corporate environments, coordinated implementation is crucial to avoid goal conflicts and ensure overall protection across all organizational processes.
