I think "compliance" would be a better word to use that "safety" when it comes to a lot of "security" software on computers.

And I bring up the distinction because while compliance is "sometimes" about safety, it's also very often about KPIs of particular individuals or due to imaginary liability for having not researched every possible "compliance" checkbox conceivable and making sure it's been checked.

Some computer security software is completely out of hand because its primary purpose is to have the appearance of effectiveness for the exec whose job is to tick off as many safety checkboxes as they can find, as opposed to being actually pragmatically effective.

If the same methodologies were applied to car safety, cars would be so weighed down by safety features, that they wouldn't be able to go faster than 40km/h.
