In agreement with the National Security Accreditation Authority of the Office of the Prime Minister and INFOSEC, the Malta Standards Authority (MSA) has been appointed by the National Security Authority of the Ministry for Justice and Home Affairs as the Designated Security Authority (DSA) for Industrial Security.

The Malta Standards Authority as DSA is responsible to communicate to industrial and other private entities the national policy in all matters relating to industrial security and for providing direction and assistance in its implementation.
 
Moreover, the MSA as the Designated Security Authority has the responsibility amongst others, for regulating and monitoring the effectiveness of Malta’s classified information protection system and for the security vetting of personnel in the field of Industrial Security.

The MSA is therefore inviting interested Industrial and private entities to contact MSA (Attn. Mr. Francis Farrugia, e-mail: francis.p.farrugia@msa.org.mt) to obtain information and assistance on such matters.  These include the necessary measures to be taken to ensure that when handling EU classified information, the EU Council/Commission security Regulations are respected by Industrial and other private entities, their contractors and sub contractors.
