Best Practices for Planning and Managing Physical Security Resources

Best Practices for Planning and Managing Physical Security ResourcesThe Interagency Security Committee

Sinopse: One of the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) national priorities is the protection of Federal employees and private citizens who work within and visit U.S. government-owned or leased facilities. The Interagency Security Committee (ISC), chaired by DHS and consisting of 56 Federal departments and agencies, has as its mission the development of security standards best practices, and guidelines for nonmilitary Federal facilities in the United States.
As Acting Executive Director of the ISC, I am pleased to introduce Best Practices for Planning and Managing Physical Security Resources: An Interagency Security Committee Guide. The purpose of this document is to identify practices most beneficial for physical security programs, determine the extent to which Federal agencies currently use these practices, and compile and circulate best practices agencies can use as a supplement to the ISC’s existing security standards.
