Universal Security Management Systems Standard 2017

The Universal Security Management Standard 2017 states the requirements for implementing and operating a dedicated Security Management System (SMS) for all kinds of organisations. It contributes to the security and safety of people, and of the interests and assets of the organisation. It helps protect against malicious adversaries such as criminals, and terrorists.

In this standard Security Management is described as a process that is risk based, stakeholder driven and continually improved with a Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle. This standard is drafted in accordance with the High Level Structure for management systems of ISO. This ensures compatibility and smooth integration with other management systems, such as ISO 22301 Business Continuity Management, ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 Information Security Management, and ISO 55000 Asset Management.

This standard includes the protection of all parts, processes, sites, infrastructures, systems, and tangible and intangible assets and interests of an organisation. It specifies the requirements that may be used for the certification of an SMS.

The Universal Security Management Systems Standard 2017 was developed in The Netherlands by a group of experienced security professionals. It is being used in Europe, Canada and the USA.

Mr. Howard Stoffer, former US Foreign Service officer and Deputy Executive Director in the UN Security Council, and an Associate Professor of National Security at the University of New Haven USA acknowledged the USMS Standard on March 13th 2017 at Saxion University of Enschede in The Netherlands. The University of New Haven has a special interest in the Saxion Security Management program In which the USMS Standard will be an important framework. https://sms2016.nl/universities-addopt-usms-2016/
