Governed project entry

Prepare the protection operations brief

Start with what the organization protects and how the operation must work. The governed Managed Protection Operations intake then creates one versioned brief for risk design, guarding, monitoring, response, providers, mobilization, and assurance.

This page prepares; the governed form saves

Nothing typed or reviewed on this reference page is stored. The next link opens the authenticated service intake where drafts, project versions, ownership, evidence, and submission are recorded.

Evidence readiness

Unknowns are allowed. Mark them as unknown in the governed intake so an expert can request the right evidence rather than assume it exists.

Threat & incident context

Unknowns remain evidence gaps

Existing controls

After the first save

No approval shortcut

Saving a draft creates a resumable customer record. Submission begins review; it does not approve design, price, provider, commissioning, or live operation.

Consequential decisions remain separateThe intake cannot award a guarding provider, publish a roster, activate monitoring, dispatch a response, accept commissioning, or assert that a site is safe. Those actions require their own reviewed evidence and named authority.
