Security ManualISO 28000:2007 is necessary for support of an organization implementing and managing a Supply Chain Security Management System (SCSMS)

ISO 28000 - Supply Chain Security - With companies that have a high reliance on just-in-time delivery, aging infrastructure and increased natural and human-made threats, Supply Chain Security has become a very important item for them, especially when viewed in relation with Business Continuity Management, Risk Management and Security Management.

ISO 28000 Definition

"This International Standard (ISO 28000) specifies the requirements for a security management system, including those aspects critical to the security assurance of the supply chain. Security management is linked to many other aspects of business management. Aspects include all activities controlled or influenced by organizations that impact on supply chain security. These other aspects should be considered directly, where and when they have an impact on security management, including transporting goods along the supply chain".

The business environment is constantly changing - along with threats to a company's survival. Organizations need to be ahead of the game, and an excellent defense can be built around an audit of the controls used to support information security. ISO 28000:2007 applies to all sizes of organizations, from small to multinational, in manufacturing, service, storage, or transportation at any stage of the production or supply chain that wishes to:

  • establish, implement, maintain and improve a security management system;
  • assure conformance with stated security management policy;
  • demonstrate such conformance to others;
  • seek certification/registration of its security management system by an Accredited third-party Certification Body; or
  • make a self-determination and self-declaration of conformance with ISO 28000:2007.

ISO 28000  was developed by the ISO Technical Committee TC8 "Ships and Maritime Technology". It is based on the ISO format adopted by ISO 14001:2004 because of its risk-based approach to management standards. The  ISO 28000 series of standards consists of:

  • ISO 28000:2007 - The Security Management Standard (SMS)  requirements standard, a specification for an SMS against which organizations can certify compliance.
