Serious threats to supply chain security
The threats to supply chain security have to be taken seriously: theft, disruption, industrial espionage, product manipulation or counterfeiting, fraud and even terrorism. Since the assets at risk are yours or your customers, it makes sound business sense to reduce the level of risk – especially as the complex nature of today’s transport chains means all stakeholders are heavily interdependent. If one link in the chain breaks down, everybody suffers. A certified risk management system based on a uniform security standard is an important step towards tackling supply chain threats, thereby enhancing your reputation as a reliable player in the transport business.

ISO 28000 does not prescribe specific measures. This is why compliance measures like AEO and C-TPAT can be “managed” through an ISO 28000 system.

The advantage of this risk-based approach is that the process can
