The “Silent Front” Public Awareness Campaign – Shared Responsibility for Safety
In response to growing hybrid threats, including intelligence activities, sabotage, subversion, and influence operations, the Internal Security Agency plans to launch a nationwide public awareness campaign titled “The Silent Front” in the near future, developed by the Agency’s Counterterrorism Center in cooperation with Telewizja Polska.
The campaign aims to raise public awareness of contemporary threats to national security and to build societal resilience in accordance with the “Whole of Government – Whole of Society” principle, which calls for the active participation of both government institutions and citizens in safeguarding national security.
The campaign presents the actual operational mechanisms used by foreign intelligence services and entities acting on their behalf, highlighting warning signs and appropriate ways to respond. The educational materials were developed based on operational experience and real cases handled by the agencies responsible for national security.
If you encounter a suspicious proposal or activity:
- Do not engage in suspicious activities and do not cooperate.
- Do not share information, photos, documents, or data with unauthorized persons that may be relevant to the security of the state, infrastructure, or public institutions.
- Report the incident to the appropriate authorities using available contact channels, including the TBOT procedure.
An important aspect of the project is also the promotion of the TBOT procedure, which allows citizens to report information regarding recruitment attempts, acts of sabotage, and activities carried out on behalf of foreign intelligence services.
The first episode of the campaign highlights the issue of fires in courier packages, which serves as an example of modern sabotage targeting the logistics and transportation infrastructure of European countries. The official launch of the campaign will begin on June 10, 2026.
“The Silent Front” is Poland’s first large-scale public awareness campaign presenting real threats to national security in an accessible, educational format. The project is a key element in building public awareness and strengthening the country’s resilience to hybrid threats.
