Executive Protection (new standard)
This Standard provides minimum criteria for the development, implementation, operation, and maintenance of an effective executive protection (EP) program utilizing industry accepted risk management principles. It provides guidance for the assessment of threats, vulnerabilities, and risks to the protected person(s), the identification and justification of protective services, and delivery of support based on industry-driven guidance.
This Standard is globally applicable across all sectors regardless of industry or setting and will assist consumers and providers in raising the bar in a widely unregulated profession.
PROJECT STATUS: The draft standard is under development by a broad group of industry experts who work in the field and have both a national and global perspectives. Have any questions? Contact Aivelis Opicka at: [email protected].

Risk Assessment (revision)
This standard provides guidance for conducting risks assessments and applies specifically to security-related risks, which may include physical, non-physical, and logical risks. Security risks are understood to result from the intersection of threat, vulnerability, and consequence and should be associated with specific asset(s) that may be impacted. This revision will incorporate the General Security Risk Assessment Guideline.
PROJECT STATUS: The technical committee has completed its work on the revision of the Security Risk Assessment Standard. Publication is expected late March. Have questions about this project? Contact Aivelis Opicka at: [email protected].
School Security (new standard)
The Standard provides requirements and guidance for the development, implementation, maintenance, and continual improvement of a school security program. It addresses assessing risk and developing protective strategies (utilizing physical security principles) for applying physical security measures necessary to support and promote safe educational environments (K-12). The Standard provides a basis for responsible parties to develop policies, plans, procedures, controls, and integrated physical security systems to achieve a comprehensive school security program. While the response to incidents is a part of a holistic security program, this standard focuses on preventing security‐related incidents.
PROJECT STATUS: The starting point draft is under development. Have questions about this project? Contact Aivelis Opicka at: [email protected].
