Aegis

Aegis is a protective shield or defense. Just like how your parent's hug can make you feel safe, an aegis can protect things from harm. In Greek mythology, the god Zeus had a shield called the aegis that had a powerful magic that could scare off enemies. The word has been used since then to describe anything that is protecting or defending something. It's like a superhero's shield that protects them from harm or danger. Aegis can be used to protect things like computer systems, networks, or even buildings. When you have an aegis, you can rest assured that whatever you want to protect is safe and secure.
