Dorset Police, together with police forces
throughout the United Kingdom, is better trained and equipped than
ever before to combat the threat of International and Domestic
terrorism. The Force, as part of the ongoing national counter
terrorism strategy, has dedicated Counter Terrorism Security
Advisors (CTSA’s) who are
coordinated, trained and tasked by the National Counter Terrorism
Security Office (NaCTSO), a
police unit co-located with the Centre for the Protection of the
National Infrastructure (CPNI).
The primary role of these advisors is to
provide protective and counter terrorism security advice to support
businesses. The advice available takes into account both
conventional and non-conventional terrorist techniques and the aim
is to reduce vulnerability to terrorist threats. The
CTSA’s
work closely with other police forces throughout the country,
government departments and other agencies.
The public can play a key role in supporting
the police. By remaining vigilant, being security minded and having
good security measures in place, you can protect your business
against crime and make the work of terrorists more difficult. A
small investment in security measures greatly enhances the feeling
of security on behalf of everyone and helps to protect those around
you.
For non urgent crime prevention advice,
businesses can contact their local Police Crime Reduction Officer,
but if you feel that your company could benefit from counter
terrorism security advice, please contact us using our on-line
