Who We Are
Our mission as an international organization began in 1969 port authority jurisdictions from Australia, Canada, Netherlands, New Zeeland, United Kingdom, and the United States realized it had become essential to coordinate globally to effectively address serious transnational crime, improve security and protect public safety, critical infrastructure and the supply chain through strategic collaboration and provision of protective security solutions. Thus began the international alliance that became INTERPORTPOLICE.
Our role today continues with an added focus on prevention as a proven means to preserve security. Prevention measures include community engagement, which has proved to be successful in reducing vulnerability within security environments.


v
One of our primary security focuses has been to improve incident management in light of lessons learned from natural disasters, active shooter attacks, and terrorist incidents. To do this, we brought together senior command police officers, policymakers, and experts in the practical application of prevention, protection, and preparedness in mass people environments, especially transport hubs.
The task was to find effective outcomes and methods, including best practices, quality assurance management systems, and communication and collaboration solutions. INTERPORTPOLICE has recently released our Community Security Best Practices (CSBP), based on the global findings of many countries and organizations. In addition, it has matched the CSBP by assisting and identifying an enterprise communication system. The programme is shared globally under the name: See Say Act.
