{{Main|National security}}
The national security apparatus of a nation is responsible for providing peace and security against foreign threats and aggression. National security can be threatened by a range of factors, including actions by other states (such as military or cyber attacks), violent non-state actors (such as terrorist attacks), organized criminal groups (such as narcotic cartels), and natural disasters (such as floods and earthquakes).<ref name="Romm 1993">{{Cite book|title=Defining national security: the nonmilitary aspects |last=Romm |first=Joseph J.|author-link=Joseph J.
