Plural of safe; secure metal boxes or rooms designed to protect valuable items like money, jewelry, or documents from theft or damage.
From Old French 'saif', derived from Latin 'salvus' meaning 'unharmed' or 'whole'. The meaning shifted from an adjective describing safety to a noun for the object that provides it.
Safes are one of the oldest forms of cybersecurity—before computers, protecting your valuables meant having a really good vault with locks, and some antique safes are so well-engineered they still can't be cracked!
