Miten hahmottaa security-alaa. Toereettinen Malli Suomen Security-Liiketoiminta-Aleista (Security as an Area Of Business).

摘要

As an area of business, the concept of security is quite ambiguous and unclear. Security market research reports categorise the security industry in different ways and into several parts; there is currently no common approach, and even the areas and concepts are not well-defined. Even so, there is mutual consensus that the security industry has been growing. This report considers, at a national level, which areas of business have potential in the security sector, how those areas can constitute a cluster, and which factors affect security markets. Throughout this report, security is considered to be the state of being free from the danger of intentional damage. The business of security includes companies that provide products and services, the companies buying and using those products and services, the government, the research community, educational institutions, financial institutions, and institutions that promote collaboration. Individuals and society also play an important role: as clients, users of products and services, research subjects, and even as a subject of influence. A diverse range of dangers and the associated perceptions on risk have given rise to an extensive and broad security market. There are several different factors that influence the market, for example, political decisions, legislation, standards, technology trends, public opinions on safety and security, and public acceptability of different solutions and the associated effects on privacy protection. In this study, a theoretical security cluster was outlined by combining some areas of the security business: the defence industry, providers of CBRNE-detection technologies, guarding and security services, transport security solutions and locking system solutions. These areas of business, however, represent only part of the entire security business. Furthermore, this cluster model is purely theoretical and only a real need, deriving from the desires of the stakeholders (members of theoretical cluster), can make the cluster function.
