National Protective Security Authority (NPSA)
NPSA is the government’s National Technical Authority for physical and personnel protective security. Understanding the threats facing your business or organisation will ensure protective security measures are proportionate, effective and responsive.
The NPSA website is an essential site with information on protective security approved by the government, advice and guidance, and learning resources.
The NPSA offer an expanding range of innovative resource materials and toolkits to support our delivery of protective security advice. These include full-length videos, e-learning packages, campaign materials, assessment tools and interactive products.
This guidance outlines the sabotage threat (the means by which hostile actors undermine national security to further political, military and economic interests) and provides a toolbox, signposting users to relevant useful guidance.
We have included a range of resources from the NPSA site that are suitable for implementing protective security in arts, culture and heritage venues.
