UK National Security Strategy

Building upon the foundations of the UK’s first National Security Strategy (circa March 2008), the 2010 National Security Strategy: ‘A Strong Britain in an Age of Uncertainity’, published in October 2010, for the first time prioritises the “different and more complex range of threats from a myriad of sources”.

 

Those topping the list and grabbing all the headlines are the threat of terrorist attack (including the use of Chemical, Biological, Radiological or Nuclear (CBRN) materials), cyber attack, natural disaster and international military crisis. The threats in tiers 2 and 3, although less likely, should however still represent threats with the potential to crippple the UK’s Critical National Infrastructure, its global communications, and its international communities and assets.
