Security

shin + bet, names of the initial letters of sherut bitahon (kelali) "(general) security service."

Security is the guarding of property — such as the property of being alive (the body), or the property of growth (resource). Security increases on the vector of lessened risk — to a vector of negligible risk. Security is lessened risk, but the lessening of risk is the result of something being secure rather than insecure. E.g. the proper application of shelter is the lessening of the risk of fatal exposure. Preservation is the product of security.From Latin securus, of persons, "free from care, quiet, easy," also in a bad sense, "careless, reckless;" of things, "tranquil; free from danger, safe," from *se cura, from se "free from" (see secret (n.)) + cura "care" (see cure (n.)). By 1530s, "without care, dreading no evil."Security is produced through action called ‘security’, ‘making secure’ or ‘the production of security’, ‘safety measures’, or securitsation. The essential action of security is blocking, such as blocking one pathway of action in the case of channeling the action of a fire away from what is to be secured.Asymmetry, as operationalized within public key crypto-systems, is an implementation of time – a temporalization, or current. Things go one way rather than another. — Nick Land n13-18Security depends on resources, but resources need to be acquired and/or maintained. Finance is a resource, we thus speak of financial security.

Security is often based on asymmetry, such as the asymmetry in being able to take a greater blow than is situationally capable of being dealt — the armor is stronger than the damage; the securer has the password but the thief does not (knowledge asymmetry).

* Incidentally, see «The Production of Security» by Gustave de Molinari (1819-1912).
It is upon lockings and unlockings that the entire reality of property is built. When critically collapsed onto the plane of cryptographic immanence, privacy and property are indistinguishable. Both are accounted in keys. No other valuables in reality exist.— Nick Land n13-18

Nick Land spoke of the ‘human security system’ in his interview (jl18) with Justin Murphy.
