The relationship between science, technology and the security has been a topic of longstanding concern, one given renewed salience since September 11th 2001. The pace and breadth of scientific and technological developments are often seen as challenging the viability of systems of governance. 'Technology' in its broadest sense factors into most security problems and proposed solutions. Yet, across many academic fields and policy discussions, the understanding of technology remains fairly under-developed. Technology and Security is designed to take forward the existing state of understanding where security and technology intersect.
