Programming mandate addrssed to the European standardisatio organisations for the elaboration of european standards to identify and reduce crime risk in products and services
Mandate M/355 is a programming mandate issued by the European Commission to the European Standardisation Organisations (ESOs) for the development of European standards aimed at identifying and reducing crime risk in products and services. The mandate focuses on enhancing security measures and minimizing vulnerabilities that could be exploited for criminal activities. It seeks to establish standardized criteria and guidelines to ensure safer products and services across the EU market. The decision relates to the approval or disapproval of this mandate, as referenced in resolution CEN/BT C89/2004.
Purpose
This mandate, referenced as M/355, is aimed at the development of European standards focused on identifying and reducing crime risks associated with products and services. The objective is to enhance security and safety by standardising methods and criteria that mitigate potential criminal exploitation or misuse of these products and services.
Standardisation request
The European standardisation organisations are requested to elaborate European standards that specifically address the identification and reduction of crime risks. This involves creating technical specifications, guidelines, or requirements that can be applied across the European Union to improve the safety and security features of products and services against criminal threats.
Expected deliverables
- Development of European standards defining criteria for assessing and managing crime risks in products and services.
- Technical guidelines and best practices to support manufacturers and service providers in implementing crime risk reduction measures.
- Standardised methodologies for evaluating the effectiveness of crime risk controls.
Context
This mandate was put forward in the context of increasing concerns about crime-related risks impacting products and services in the EU internal market. The resolution reference CEN/BT C89/2004 indicates approval procedures within the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN). The initiative supports harmonised measures to enhance consumer and societal protection by systematically addressing security vulnerabilities through standardisation.
This mandate covers the development of European standards aimed at identifying and reducing crime risk in products and services. It focuses on enhancing safety and security measures to prevent criminal activities related to various products and service sectors.
