The Pentagon Force Protection Agency
(PFPA) was established in May 2002
in response to the events of September
11, 2001, and subsequent terrorist
threats facing the DOD workforce and
facilities in the National Capital Region
(NCR). PFPA is under the authority,
direction, and control of the Director,
Administration and Management, in the
Off‌ice of the Secretary of Defense. PFPA
provides force protection, security, and
law enforcement for the people, facilities,
infrastructure, and other resources at
the Pentagon and for DOD activities
and facilities within the NCR that are
not under the jurisdiction of a military
department. Consistent with the national
strategy on combating terrorism, PFPA
addresses threats, including chemical,
biological, and radiological agents,
through a strategy of prevention,
preparedness, detection, and response
to ensure that the DOD workforce and
facilities in the NCR are secure and
protected.
