These Physical Security Performance Goals–modelled after the successful Cybersecurity Performance Goals–are a collection of cost-effective actions specifically tailored for faith-based organisations that can be implemented to reduce risk without sacrificing accessibility. This is the latest resource the Biden-Harris Administration is offering to faith-based organisations in response to the current heightened threat environment.
