In your Manifest add lines below:
<manifest ... >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
...
</manifest>
Please have a look to:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-intro.html#perms http://developer.android.com/training/articles/security-tips.html#Permissions
To access device features as Camera, GPS, ... you need to request permissions. If permissions is not requested then a SecurityException is thrown.

I think that coarse location and fine location have not any relation with security, they are needed to describe precision – Belgacem Bouzayani Feb 24 '15 at 09:30
