The Security Age is a term used by some to refer to the post-9/11 era, in which security has been increased in numerous venues, such as airports, government buildings, and international borders. It is commonly a critical reference to the level of security, and the need for its amount. Though security has drastically increased since 9/11, there were many security measures that were implemented in prior decades that can also be considered part of what some would call the "security age."
Video surveillance
Video surveillance has been around in widespread use for at least a few decades, though the amount has increased in urban areas since 9/11. While previously viewed as a crime-fighting tool, the addition of video surveillance in the post-9/11 era has often been justified as a terrorism prevention measure. Critics question whether or not video surveillance has the ability to stop a terrorist attack.

was a Japanese supercentenarian. Kawamoto was the oldest recognized people in the world for more than a year, until she died at age 113 years and 103 days. However, she was not mentioned as such in the 1976 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records though her case was accepted by the Japanese authorities. Every book since mentions her and her successor, the much more famous Shigechiyo Izumi, also from Japan, who is still recognized by Guinness as the oldest man ever, although many people doubt this claim.
