Morphology
The meaning 'extra measures taken to increase safety or security' is directly compositional from 'added' (extra, additional) modifying 'protection' (safety), so a B1 learner who knows both words can readily infer the phrase. This adjective+noun pattern is productive and cross-linguistically common, offering straightforward transparency.
Etymology
Added protection paints a simple picture: added means one more thing and protection means something that keeps you safe, like putting a second lock on a door or a raincoat over your clothes. So added protection means 'extra measures to increase safety or security'.
