The CISF came into existence in 1969 with a modest beginning, having three battalions, to provide integrated security cover to the Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) which, in those years, occupied the commanding heights of the economy.

Among the important responsibilities recently entrusted to the CISF are the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, and establishment of a Formed Police Unit (FPU) of the UN at Haiti.
