What is National
Security?
National security encompasses every
aspect of national life and nation-
building. It has expanded, evolved and
no longer exclusive to the traditional
notions of internal and external
defense.

National Security's
3 Major Pillars:
1. Safeguarding the Philippines' National Unity,
Democracy and it's Social Constitution.
2. Ensuring the security of the state and
preserving and protecting its sovereignty,
territorial integrity, and institutions.
3. Protection of properties, infrastructures and
keeping the people safe from all forms of
threats, here and abroad.

MANAGING CRISIS AND NATIONAL
EMERGENCIES
The National Crisis Management
Framework provides a comprehensive
approach to understanding the
components of a crisis or the 5Ps of
crisis management: Predict, Prevent,
Prepare, Perform and Post-Action and
Assessment.
The illustration shows the escalation of crisis—from convergence of indicators to
the occurrence of an incident, critical incident and a full-blown crisis—and the
interaction of the 5Ps of crisis management.
