 Although safety and security are terms that describe a ''state'', they can also be used to describe a ''form of protection'' (the actions or measures taken to improve that state).

 [[File:hard_hat.jpg|thumb|right|300px|A hard hat, a typical safety measure against accidents]][[File:Locks.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Locks, a typical security measure against wilful acts]]The distinction between [[safety]] and [[security]] lies in the type of threat that is at the source of the risk. While security concerns risk due to [[human intent]] (wilful harmful acts), safety concerns all other risk. Shortly put, safety concerns protection from ''accidents'', security concerns protection from ''crime''.
 This means that whether a measure is a security measure or a safety measure, depends on the type of risk it is ''meant'' to mitigate. A reinforced window for example can be both:
-* When installed to prevent harm coming to the inhabitants coming from a gas tank accidentally exploding, it would be a safety measure.
-* When installed to protect the inhabitants from terrorist explosions, it would be a security measure.
+*When installed to prevent harm coming to the inhabitants coming from a gas tank accidentally exploding, it would be a safety measure.
+*When installed to protect the inhabitants from terrorist explosions, it would be a security measure.
 A measure can also serve as a security and a safety measure at the same time. An example can be found in a door: the fire-delaying properties of the door might serve as a safety measure while the fact that it is protecting against unauthorised entry is a security measure.
