defense strategies

Ways to guard

Defense strategies are plans or methods for protecting against attack, harm, or threat.

The term appears across domains: military defense strategies protect nations, legal defense strategies protect the accused, and psychological defense strategies (or defense mechanisms) protect the ego from anxiety.

In sports and games, defense strategies aim to prevent opponents from scoring.
