From the NPSA
For information on physical security, the National Protective Security Authority (NPSA) has guidance on Defending Democracy and Personal Safety and Security which addresses a range of threats.
For election candidates, there is also an NPSA video on safety and security which shows where you can access relevant security advice and guidance that may be helpful to you during and after an election period.
Joint international guidance aimed at civil society groups
The NCSC has worked with international partners on ‘Mitigating Cyber Threats with Limited Resources: Guidance for Civil Society’. This guidance provides civil society organisations with recommended actions and mitigations to reduce their risk of cyber attacks, particularly from state-sponsored cyber actors.
It can be found on the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) website.
