The Internal Security Agency

The ABW safeguards our country’s strategic interests – political, economic and defence-related – and counters activities that could weaken Poland’s position on the international stage or threaten our internal stability.

We identify threats associated with attempts to illegally seize control of key enterprises, interfere in decision-making processes or exert influence over strategic investments. Our service combats corruption in areas critical to national security.

Why is this important?

The protection of strategic state interests is crucial to its continuity, stability and development. It enables the safeguarding of strategic sectors of the economy, employment, investments and resources against actions that could undermine the country.
