Turvallisuuslainsäädäntöjen
Turvallisuuslaki is the Finnish term for "Security Act." It is a foundational piece of legislation in Finland that outlines the principles and practices governing national security. The act defines what constitutes national security threats and establishes the roles and responsibilities of various authorities in addressing them. It covers areas such as the protection of critical infrastructure, intelligence gathering, counter-terrorism measures, and the safeguarding of public order. The Turvallisuuslaki aims to ensure the safety and stability of the Finnish state and its citizens by providing a legal framework for security operations. It emphasizes the importance of cooperation between different state organs and, where necessary, with international partners. The act also includes provisions related to data protection and the use of surveillance technologies in security contexts, balancing the need for security with the protection of individual rights and freedoms. Amendments to the Turvallisuuslaki are periodically made to adapt to evolving security challenges and international standards.
