ISO/TC 292

ISO/TC 292 Security and resilience is a technical committee of the International Organization for Standardization formed in 2015 to develop standards in the area of security and resilience.
The Technical Management Board of ISO (TMB) decided in June 2014 to create a new ISO technical committee with the number ISO/TC 292 by merging three committees into one. The work of ISO/TC 292 officially started on 2015-01-01 and the three previous committees were dissolved and their workprogrammes moved to the new committee. ISO/TC 292 also was given the responsibility for the ISO 28000 series (Security management in the supply chain)previously developed by ISO/TC 8.
The TMB decision was made in order to clarify ISO's structural organization on security matters, and to prepare for future topics in this field by creating a de facto coordination body within the TC central structure. IT was believed that ISO/TC 292 would lead to optimization as well as limit and prevent conflict or duplication of work. It would also make it easier for public administrations/authorities with a general interest and protective mission to optimize their participation in ISO's work in this sector. As well as give Non-Profit organizations with limited resources a simplified structure to take part in.
When ISO/TC 292 was created the following three committees were merged.
