The High Commission for National Protection (Haut-commissariat à la Protection nationale, HCPN) is a body that falls under the responsibility of the Prime Minister and Minister of State. Its main mission is to ensure that the nation is always and in all circumstances protected against threats that could seriously infringe upon the country's sovereignty and independence, the free functioning of its institutions, the safeguarding of its national interests and the safety of the population.
The Grand Ducal decree of 10th February 2015 setting governance on information security management proposes the creation of a National Information System Security Agency (ANSSI) for the public sector and critical infrastructures.
The ANSSI is attached to the High Commission for National Protection (HCNP).
