Security Standards

Security standards will change the landscape of how security professionals do business. It is imperative that security professionals should create security standards. Therefore, it is entirely appropriate for ASIS International to be involved developing security standards. Security standards will serve the needs of security professionals by increasing the effectiveness and productivity of security practices and solutions, as well as enhancing the professionalism of the industry.

To advance security practices through the development of standards and guidelines on a worldwide basis, ASIS Intl. participates in the U.S. national standards setting organization, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). ASIS also participates in international standards-setting initiatives as a member of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Participation ensures that ASIS provides a voice of security professionals in developing global security standards.
