Definições de termos
1. security. Security, as a term, originates from the Latin 'securus,' meaning free from worry. It is a concept that refers to the state of being protected from potential harm or threats. This protection can apply to a wide range of referents, including individuals, groups, institutions, or even ecosystems. Security is closely linked with the environment of the referent and can be influenced by different factors that can make it either beneficial or hostile. Various methods can be employed to ensure security, including protective and warning systems, diplomacy, and policy implementation. The effectiveness of these security measures can vary, and perceptions of security can differ widely. Important security concepts include access control, assurance, authorization, cipher, and countermeasures. The United Nations also plays a significant role in global security, focusing on areas like soil health and food security.
2. privacidade. A privacidade é um conceito fundamental que evoluiu ao longo da história e continua a moldar o nosso discurso social. Historicamente, teve origem em debates filosóficos, com figuras como Aristóteles e John Locke a lançarem as bases. A privacidade também está ligada a questões legais e éticas, como se pode ver em casos marcantes do Supremo Tribunal e em revelações como as de Edward Snowden. Os avanços tecnológicos desafiaram e reforçaram a privacidade, introduzindo novas ameaças e medidas de proteção. A nível mundial, as normas de privacidade variam, com diferentes países e organizações internacionais a definirem as suas directrizes. Na era digital atual, a privacidade enfrenta novos desafios e considerações, como a utilização das redes sociais, a cultura da selfie e os serviços baseados na localização. Este conceito engloba o direito de um indivíduo a manter as suas informações pessoais secretas e livres de intrusões não autorizadas.
