Abstract
Security is that which ensures the well-being and the protection of the individual, as
well as everything that is related to the human being: food, economy, education, environment,
etc. Fighting crime as a way of providing the security of mankind “must take into account the
respect for human rights”. All modern human communities have come to understand the need
to intensify concerns in order to extinguish states of conflict since their early phase.
Therefore, the attention of policy makers and analysts in each human settlement turns
increasingly toward those events, processes and phenomena that can give rise to dangerous
contradictions, trying to discover, examine, master them, constantly keeping them under
control.
Keywords: security of objectives, protection of individuals, specific documents,
security with the local police

People have always tried to ensure their own protection against certain eventualities,
in the beginning by satisfying their vital needs, and later on by giving rise to bodies
empowered to ensure national security and/or local security.
Security went from being defined as “a state of fact” modifying its composition with
the development of technique and technology in parallel with terrorist attacks and organized
crime, to representing a security environment. The security issue has preoccupied human
communities throughout their existence. With the social and political organization of human
society, the need to ensure the security of the community has also emerged. The concept of
security at the individual’s level expresses the feeling of not being in danger, of being
protected, of living peacefully in an environment allowing self-affirmation on multiple levels.
At the level of the community, the concept of security means a situation where a group of
people, a state or groups of states, following specific measures of protection, have the
certainty that their existence, integrity or fundamental interests are being protected.
