NISS was initially conceived as the Department of State Services Training School in 1999, before it was later upgraded to the Institute of Security Studies (ISS), in 2008.
In June 2019 President Muhammadu Buhari assented to the Bill by the National Assembly which elevated the outfit to NISS.
Speaking at the occasion, Mr Boss Mustapha, Secretary of the Government of the Federation, highlighted the duties of the board to include determining and monitoring programmes to be run by the Institute.

The board, chaired by Mr Afakriya Gadzama, has Mr Sanusi Galadima, Dr (Mrs.) Amlna Shamaki, Mr F.A Adekaiyaoja, Mr Kio Aimeyeofori, Maj.-Gen. BM Shafa, Mr A.S. Adeleke and Mr Nuhu Umar as members.
