security theater : ウィキペディア英語版 | security theater Security theater is the practice of investing in countermeasures intended to provide the feeling of improved security while doing little or nothing to actually achieve it.〔 〕 Some experts such as Edward Felten have described the airport security repercussions due to the September 11 attacks as security theater. == Benefits == While it may seem that security theater must always cause loss, it may actually be beneficial, at least in a localized situation. This is because ''perception'' of security is sometimes more important than security itself. If the potential victims of an attack feel more protected and safer as a result of the measures, then they may carry on activities they would have otherwise avoided. In addition, if the security measures in place appear effective, potential attackers may be dissuaded from proceeding or may direct their attention to a target perceived as less secure. Unsophisticated adversaries in particular may be frightened by superficial impressions of security (such as seeing multiple people in uniform or observing cameras) and not even attempt to find weaknesses or determine effect.
