Measures

Measures are provisions made or actions taken to protect an object or subject from risk.

Measure types
Measures can be classified by their point of application in the process of a criminal act. From the perspective of a criminal, all measures reduce the perceived attractiveness of a target. Identified points of application are:
 * Increasing perceived effort
 * Increasing perceived risk
 * Decreasing anticipated reward
 * Controlling contributing circumstances
 * Other

All measure types can be classified in one of these categories. The table below displays for each of the measure types in Securipedia, which point of application it works on.

By clicking the "?" a brief description of the measure is provided.
