Our knowledge covers counter-terrorism, intelligence, investigations, law enforcement, technology, and explosives. That makes us subject matter experts on the existing and evolving threats facing Australia's national interests, and it gives us the confidence to identify, analyse and reduce security risk in a wide range of environments.

About the role
