JBS Guide to SRMBoK - Physical Security

Abstract

Establishing security specifications that deliver consistent and agreed levels of security protection based on the threat context is a challenge common to most organisations regardless of size or industry sector. This is particularly the case for organisations operating in different regions or countries, which face the added complexity of attempting to define specifications for security measures when terminology, materials and legislation are different.

This section deals with the establishment of physical security specifications for organisations by providing detailed information on the various threat control measures that can be adopted, and which can be readily used as a basis for consideration/modification to suit your specific organisational situations.

About SRMBoK

The Security Risk Management Body of Knowledge (SRMBOK) was developed as an initiative of the Risk
Management Institution of Australasia Limited (RMIA) in conjunction with Jakeman Business Solutions Pty Ltd
(JBS), which provided the lead authors and financially underwrote its publication.

SRMBOK was written to contribute to the identification and documentation of agreed better practice in
Security Risk Management.

SRMBOK is also supported by many Guides to SRMBOK written by independent security professionals that
provide more detailed guidance and examples of how the SRMBOK framework can be applied in practice.
Whilst each of these Guides is peer reviewed prior to publication, any opinions and views expressed are those
of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of RMIA or JBS.
