Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet



Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet (NSM) (Norwegian; National Security Authority) is a Norwegian intelligence agency at the level of government agency ("Direktorat") established on January 1, 2003 as one of two newly established organizations to take over the responsibilities of the defunct Forsvarets sikkerhetsstab (FO/S), the other being Forsvarets sikkerhetsavdeling (FSA). It is responsible for proactive national security, identifying national objects of special interest (like the national oil company Statoil) and reducing their vulnerability to internal and external threats.
