Counter-Terrorism Protective Security & Martyn's Law
Proportionate security measures that strengthen preparedness, resilience and operational effectiveness.
Independent, risk-based security advice helping organisations protect people, assets, information and operations against credible threats.
The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, commonly known as Martyn's Law, introduces new requirements for certain premises and events to improve preparedness and protective security against terrorism.
​
The Government, Security Industry Authority (SIA) and ProtectUK provide extensive free guidance and resources to help organisations understand their responsibilities under the Act. Many organisations can begin by reviewing these resources and determining whether their premises or events fall within scope.
​
Where additional support is required, State2 Security provides independent advice to help organisations determine whether premises or events fall within scope, understand duty-holder responsibilities, assess existing arrangements and strengthen preparedness through proportionate and practical measures.
Our Support
We help organisations assess terrorism-related threats, strengthen counter-terrorism protective security, improve preparedness and build organisational resilience. Our approach supports organisations in understanding and meeting their legal responsibilities, while helping develop robust and defensible security arrangements aligned to recognised protective security good practice.
​
Organisations face an evolving range of terrorism-related threats that can impact people, operations, reputation and critical assets. Effective counter-terrorism preparedness requires more than compliance. It requires a clear understanding of threat, vulnerability and consequence, supported by practical measures that can be sustained and operated effectively.
​
State2 Security provides independent specialist advice in counter-terrorism protective security and preparedness, helping organisations assess risk, strengthen resilience and develop proportionate security arrangements aligned to their operating environment.
​
Our advice is evidence-based, operationally grounded and tailored to the realities of each organisation, ensuring security measures remain effective, practical and proportionate.
