Security for the V&A is complex and far reaching, it includes; Safety, Emergency Response, Fire Safety, Fire Response and Business Continuity, in addition to physical security and the protection of our reputation and brand.  The Behavioural Detection Team will have the capability to operate within the Museum and the immediate vicinity, the team will be responsible for assessing visitors in order to identify those displaying human behaviours that are outside the normal baseline and taking the necessary action to deter the threat.

Over the last 2 years, the Security team have spearheaded a new approach for the security and safety at the V&A through a method known as Behavioural Detection. As our security needs are becoming more sophisticated and diverse, we are planning to build and strengthen our existing team who will, after intensive training, be able to undertake objective assessments of behaviour above or below the standard baseline.
