ISO 28000 is the international standard that defines requirements for supply chain risk management and covers processes such as planning, implementing, monitoring, and improving security. The standard provides a structured and comprehensive framework to help organizations effectively manage and mitigate security risks throughout their supply chain.

About ISO 28000

ISO 28000 specifies the requirements for a security management system, including aspects relevant to the supply chain. The standard includes recommendations on risk assessment, security controls and strategies, procedures, processes, treatments, and security plans, thus aligning more closely with ISO 22301, which focuses on business continuity management.

In general, a security management system is a comprehensive framework of operating principles and guidelines for protecting an organization’s assets, data, and operations from various threats.

ISO 28000 supports transparency and control of all logistics and resource management activities and ensures a proactive approach to minimizing disruptions and vulnerabilities.

Who needs ISO 28000 certification?

Given that security incidents can occur unexpectedly, it is essential for companies to take a proactive approach to security management.

ISO 28000 can be applied to all types and sizes of organizations (e.g., commercial enterprises, government agencies or other public bodies, and non-profit organizations) that want to establish, implement, maintain, and improve a security management system. The standard provides a common approach and is not industry-specific.

In most cases, the certification process begins:

• Logistics company
• Freight and cargo companies
• Port operators and shipping companies
• Manufacturers active in global trade
• Customs brokers and warehousing providers
• Any organization with a complex or sensitive supply chain

Implementing a security management system enables organizations to identify and protect their critical assets, such as products, data, infrastructure, property, and personnel, by applying appropriate security measures and controls. Furthermore, a well-functioning security management system helps companies increase stakeholder confidence, enhance their reputation, increase operational efficiency and profitability, and reduce long-term costs.
