-Protective Security Framework
                                                                         Stage 2
                                                               Stage 1
          What is Protective Security
                                                                                             Stage 3
          Refers to the protection of
          Assets      from   potential
          Threats, in a comprehensive
          and effective manner, such
          that functions can continue
          with minimum disruption

There are three stages in the Protective Security Framework. We begin with Threat Vulnerability Risk
Assessment (TVRA) in Stage 1 to determine which assets are at greatest risk against the threats identified.
Next, based on the TVRA, we will determine which mitigation measures would provide the necessary
safeguards to mitigate the threats.
The final stage is Quality Assurance where we want to implement programmes such as audit and red teaming
programmes to evaluate the effectiveness of the security measures implemented and provide feedback to
enhance our mitigation measures or even to refine our TVRA threat scenarios.

10 Principles of Protective Security
The following are 10 principles to consider in designing and implementing protective security measures

  Asset Identification                                                        Risk Management Approach
                                                                              Risk assessment should be carried out to identify higher
  Identification of assets must be comprehensive –

  Threat-Oriented Protection                                                  Security-Operations Balance

  Security by Design                                                           Integration of Security Measures
  It is more cost effective to incorporate security measures                   Implemented security measures must work in
  into the design of the building than retrofitting security                   tandem to be effective.

  Multiple layers of protective measures should be deployed                    It is important to ensure implemented measures are capable
  to avoid single point of failure and improve the                             of accomplishing their intended tasks of addressing specific

  effectiveness and robustness of the protection system.

  Continuity and Consistency                                                   Adaptability to Changes
