Security Management System
The Twin Towers disaster in the USA in the year 2001 was the first event that aroused the awareness of world leaders to the existing vulnerability of national infrastructures in the case of terrorist attacks or extreme natural disasters. In the lack of international standards, The Standards Institution of Israel has initiated a project, with the encouragement and support of the United States ? Israel Science Technology Foundation (USISTF), for the development of an Israel standard (SI) 24001, Security and Continuity Management System, whose purpose is to assist organizations in the groundwork on how to deal with Emergency Preparedness. This unique Israel Standard on security and continuity management, SI 24001, has recently been published. This Standard combines the requirement of risk and threat analysis to the organization within the management system as a basis for preparation of a management program. On the basis of this analysis, the organization is expected to prepare a program for preparedness.
SI 24001 is based on the assumption that a security event cannot be categorically prevented. Therefore, the Standard also contains a requirement to prepare plans for response and recovery in order to minimize the harm to the organization and its stake holders. The Standard has been submitted to ISO's Technical Committee ISO/TC 223 Societal Security, as a proposal for an International Standard.
