seksuring

Seksuring is a term found in some niche discussions to refer to practices aimed at protecting assets, data, or people by applying security-related measures. It is not a standard term in formal security literature and does not have a universally agreed definition. Because of its nonstandard status, the meaning of seksuring varies by context and author.

Etymology and usage are uncertain. The word appears to be a portmanteau or idiosyncratic spelling derived from securing and security, and it has surfaced in informal writings, hobbyist communities, and speculative contexts more than in official guidelines. As a result, its precise scope is fluid and often defined by the source that uses it.

In information security contexts, some writers use seksuring to describe a comprehensive, layered approach to protecting systems, combining technical controls (encryption, authentication, access control, monitoring) with governance measures (policies, training, risk assessment). In physical security, it may refer to procedures for safeguarding tangible assets, including tamper-evident measures and chain-of-custody. In speculative or fictional uses, seksuring can function as a naming convention for a security-centered discipline or culture within a story or game world.

Limitations and cautions: the term carries no formal standard definition, so readers should rely on explicit definitions provided by the author when encountering it. For clarity, it is often preferable to use established terms such as securing or information security.
