Military & Borders

Understanding the threat

Military

The military are tasked with supporting the interests of a country and its citizens.  They support our national defence policies; protect our nation against hostility and support, peace keeping humanitarian missions in volatile international locations.  Providing secure military establishments both in times of peace and hostility is a priority to enable a safe working environment for our armed forces, both at home and internationally

Borders

The rise in globalisation and freedom of movement presents an increasing pressure on border security.  Rises in immigration, geopolitical issues and threats of terrorism present a clear need to focus on the physical security measures adopted.
