protected from liabilities

Dear Sirs/Madams,

I would highly appreciate if anyone could help me explain this phrase "protected from liabilities". I found this in this sentence:

"Officials who disclose information pursuant to access to information legislation must be protected from liability."

Yours faithfully,
Watermelon2

Here it means "kept safe from getting in trouble". Liability is an uncountable noun in this context.
