About the Programme
The objectives, audience, eligibility criteria and organisers of the ISTP Programme.
Why ISTP exists
ISTP is designed for professionals who already carry security responsibility and need to bring together two disciplines that are usually taught separately: industrial security management (risk, physical protection, business continuity) and terrorism preparedness (early detection, reporting, response, recovery).
Programme objective: on completing ISTP, participants are able to assess the security risk of a facility in a structured way, recognise threat indicators including hostile reconnaissance, design proportionate prevention and preparedness measures, and communicate security requirements to management and to the competent authorities through the correct channels.
The overarching framework is organisational resilience — an organisation's ability to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from incidents — now used by regulators and the insurance industry as a common language.
Designed for those who already carry the responsibility
CSOs & Security Managers
Accountable for facility risk at board level and required to justify security spending in business terms.
Gada Utama holders
Professionals at the top of the national ladder who need a credible next step towards international practice.
Senior management of security service providers
Security service providers competing on competence and compliance rather than on headcount and price.
Critical infrastructure operators
Energy, mining, ports, power, transport and industrial estates — sectors with regulated security obligations.
Corporate Risk & Compliance
Risk, HSE and compliance officers who own business continuity and need the security half of the picture.
Property & Facility Management
Managers of high-occupancy buildings, shopping centres, hotels and mixed-use estates facing crowded-place threat scenarios.
Participant eligibility criteria
- Holds responsibility for security, risk, facilities or compliance within an organisation; or holds Gada Utama; or is part of the management of a security service provider.
- Gada Utama is not mandatory — professionals with equivalent responsibility are eligible.
- Every enquiry is reviewed for fit by the programme office before a seat is confirmed, in order to maintain a peer-level cohort.
Three institutions, clearly defined roles
Universitas Indonesia
Pranata Pembangunan Research Centre (UKK). Host of delivery on the UI campus, academic review and validation of the curriculum, co-branding of the Certificate of Completion, and custodian of the participant completion verification archive.
INDOGUARD.org
A division of PT HRM Multi Sinergy. Programme management: participant recruitment and administration, logistics, marketing, facilitator coordination, participant data protection, and programme reporting.
3S Sandi Satria Solo
PT Sandi Satria Solo — strategic partner and learning centre. Training infrastructure support, simulation and practical facilities, and agreed teaching assignments.
The three parties work under a tripartite Cooperation Agreement for the delivery of the ISTP Programme. APSI (the Indonesian Security Officers Professional Association) supports the programme as a professional community partner.
The involvement of state institutions takes the form of subject-matter speakers and guidance on self-managed security within their respective mandates. The display of a logo does not imply certification, accreditation or quality assurance of the programme by that institution. APSI supports the programme as a professional community partner, not as an organiser.
Taught inside the real chain of coordination
Corporate security does not operate in isolation. ISTP teaches the coordination architecture explicitly: to whom a facility reports, when, and on what legal basis.
National regulation
Law No. 5/2018, Government Regulation No. 43/2012, self-managed security regulation, the National Vital Object framework, and Law No. 27/2022 on Personal Data Protection.
Coordination doctrine
Escalation and reporting lines between private security, the police and counter-terrorism authorities.
Sectoral supervision
Security obligations in regulated industries: energy, finance, transport.
Regional framework
The ASEAN Convention on Counter Terrorism (2007) and its implications for private operators.
International references
ASIS and ISO standards; the UNODC Education for Justice counter-terrorism module series.
The institutions and regulations referenced are discussed as teaching material. Such references do not constitute endorsement of, or institutional affiliation with, the programme.
