ISO 28000

ISO 28000:2022 is the international standard designed to establish, implement, maintain, and improve a Security Management System (SMS) for the supply chain. It provides a systematic approach to address potential security threats — from terrorism, fraud, piracy, and smuggling to disruptions and delays. This standard is ideal for organizations involved in logistics, transport, warehousing, and distribution of goods at any stage of the global supply chain.

As global trade grows more complex and vulnerable, ISO 28000 helps companies protect assets, reduce risks, and gain stakeholder trust by ensuring a robust and verifiable security posture

What is ISO 28000?

ISO 28000:2022 Certification is a globally recognized compliance standard that verifies an organization’s ability to identify security threats, assess vulnerabilities, and implement controls to mitigate risks across its supply chain operations. Issued by Quality Asia Certification, this certificate demonstrates your company’s compliance with best practices in supply chain security.

This certification is applicable to all sizes and types of organizations, particularly those that are part of or rely heavily on global or national supply chains — such as shipping companies, manufacturers, freight forwarders, port operators, and customs agents.

Why is ISO 28000 important?

The modern supply chain faces increasing threats from cyber-attacks, physical thefts, piracy, smuggling, and other vulnerabilities. ISO 28000:2022 provides a structured framework to:

  1. Enhance visibility and control across the supply chain.
  2. Comply with regulatory and customs security programs (like C-TPAT and AEO).
  3. Improve stakeholder confidence in your logistics and security processes.
  4. Integrate security into business operations with measurable KPIs.
  5. Support continuous improvement in managing security risks.

By obtaining ISO 28000 certification, your organization gains a competitive edge, ensures compliance with international security expectations, and improves operational efficiency.
