Recent Attention

Environmental challenges, resulting from either a scarcity of natural resources or environmental degradation, may contribute to security risks in Central Asia. An encouraging sign is the recent attention of the governments of Central Asia, civil society groups and international organizations to these environmental security issues. Their efforts indicate that by working together to prevent conflicts caused by environmental problems, cooperation among the countries of Central Asia may expand. Both short and long-term obstacles must be overcome if these groups are to ensure that environmental stresses do not lead to security concerns.

Security Issues

There is an international consensus that climate change is caused by human activities which substantially increase the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases.The ill-effects of climate change are droughts which adversely affect the global poor who are engaged in agriculture; storm surges which destroy local infrastructure, housing and crops; and the rise of sea levels which adversely affect the inhabitants of small island states which could eventually be totally submerged. Military strategists and intelligence analysts are preparing for future conflicts likely to be caused by environmental security issues.The objects of this article are: (i) to evaluate the ill-effects of climate change as a matter of global justice, (ii) to consider whether future generations have the right not to suffer from the ill-effects of climate change, and if so, (iii) to evaluate the relevant conceptions of global justice, and (iv) to assess critically whether international law provides effective preventive responses to climate change and environmental security threats.Finally, a monist-naturalist conception of global justice privileging human dignity as one of its guiding principles is proffered as a solution to the problems raised by the mechanisms of dealing with the ill-effects of climate change and the attendant environmental security issues under international law.

The Relationship

This chapter discusses the relationship between the environment and security. The concept of ‘environmental security’ is omnipresent, but is nonetheless ambiguous and contested. What exactly needs to be secured, and what are the security threats? Is environmental security about state security, faced with the loss of natural resources? Or is it about protecting individuals and communities from environmental degradation and reduced access to key environmental resources? A first step in clarifying these questions is to disentangle two related but distinct causal arguments. In the relationship between environment and security, environmental degradation can be analysed either as a cause or as a consequence of security issues. A second step needed to clarify these debates is to adopt clear definitions. In the context of international relations, security has traditionally been understood in relation to the survival of the state, and the main threats to state security are armed conflicts. For the purpose of this chapter, conflicts are defined as any type of disagreement. The chapter also examines the impact of conflicts on the environment.

Security issues are one of the most important aspects of an application. Security issues often get less attention from application designers and managers. If it interferes with application performance, security issues are often ignored or even eliminated. PT Sukses Bintan Permata Kota Tanjungpinang is a company engaged in the field of work. distributor of food and staples. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of security in the GF-Accounting application, which is used by PT. The success of Bintan Permata, the city of Tanjungpinang.ISO / IEC 17799 published by the International Organization for Standardizations (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), is a code of practice to provide a framework as an information security standard. ISO / IEC 17799 as a method of this research, using the Security policy component, Physical and environmental security, Communications and Operations Management, and Access Control.The results of the study state that the security of the GF-Accounting application in each component is declared good, which can be seen on average from this GF-Accounting security analysis, all components average a value of 75.5% or a fair / good level criterion, such as Security Policy. has reached the highest value, namely 87%. then Physical and Environmental Security with a value of 72.5%, Communication and Operation management with a value of 75% and Access control with a value of 67%.
