Safety and Security are different stuff; however there are a lot of
similarities between them:
- both are linked with risks and
- lack of both may cause considerable, even catastrophic damage.
Concept of Safety culture is more mundane and much more widely
used. Safety rules and instructions are ever-present. Safety is the top
priority in areas like shipping, nuclear energy industry etc.
Creating and/or changing organisations culture is a very difficult longterm managerial task, and security culture is no exception, it is part
and parcel of the overall corporate culture.
So we are confronted with the difficult task of changing corporate
culture.
Writing security standards, policies and instructions alone does not
create culture.
We are not going to discuss all aspects of establishing the desired
culture in organization; we shall only emphasize those, which are of
particular importance in the area of information security.
