The Security and Intelligence Service of the Republic of Moldova constantly focuses its efforts on strengthening the institutional capacities to prevent and combat the corruption phenomenon that affects national security.
This fact is reflected in the SIS priorities for 2021, approved during the extraordinary meeting of the Board of the Security and Intelligence Service, held on December 30, 2020, but also in other national policy documents, adopted by the central public administration authorities of the Republic of Moldova.
In this regard, the SIS initiated a process for resizing its forces and means, using as a benchmark the practice of other European intelligence services that managed to achieve praiseworthy results in the fight against "grand corruption".
Therefore, today, September 6, the Security and Intelligence Service created within the existing SIS department responsible for defense of the constitutional order a new unit that will be in charge of integrity checking. The reconfiguration of the forces and means of the institution aims to streamline the achievement of its objectives by using the best international practices in the field.
The Security and Intelligence Service of the Republic of Moldova will constantly adjust the intervention mechanisms in order to strengthen the capabilities for detection, prevention and counteraction of the risks to national security and make them be in line with European and international standards.
