Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

Introduction
0.1 General
This document specifies requirements for a security printing management system for security printers.
Current security printing management practices lack sufficient guarantees that effective security
controls are maintained to protect the interest of the customer as well as the general public. Using this
document, the organization establishes, documents, implements and maintains a security printing
management system. This security printing management system is regularly reviewed to continually
improve its effectiveness. It is recognized that customer requirements sometimes exceed the
requirements of this document, so the security printing management system also addresses customer
requirements that are beyond the scope of this document.
The adoption of a security printing management system is a strategic decision of an organization. The
design and implementation of an organization’s security printing management system is influenced by
varying needs, particular objectives, products provided, processes employed, security environment,
cultural issues, legal limitations, risk assessment and by size and structure of the organization.
To achieve the objectives of this security printing management system standard, measures are taken to
mitigate all of the security threats determined by an organizational risk assessment. Such controls focus
upon reducing, eliminating and preventing acts that compromise the security printing management
system of the organization.
It is not the intent of this document to obtain uniformity in the structure of the security printing
management system or uniformity of documented information. The security printing management
system complies with laws and regulations in force. The requirements specified in this document are
supplementary to requirements for products and processes of an organization and allow for additional
specific requirements from the customer.
This document is intended to apply to security printers. It contains requirements that when
implemented by a security printer may be objectively audited for certification/registration purposes.
0.2 Process approach
This document promotes the adoption of a process approach when developing, implementing and
improving the effectiveness of a security printing management system.
The application of a system of processes within an organization, together with the identification
and interaction of these processes, and their management, is referred to as a “process approach”. An
advantage of a “process approach” is the ongoing control that it provides over the interaction between
individual processes within the system of processes, as well as over their combination.
0.3 Basic principles
When implemented, the security printing management system:
a) achieves the security of products, processes, means of production, premises, information, raw
material supplies;
b) is used to continue to meet demonstrably the requirements, and naturally, the needs of customers;
c) affords management the confidence that the targeted degree of security is actually achieved and
remains effective;
d) affords the customers the confidence that the agreed nature and degree of security is or will be
attained.
This document prescribes which elements a security printing management system contains and not
how a specific organization implements these elements.

4 Context of the organization
4.1 Understanding the organization and its context
The organization shall determine external and internal issues that are relevant to its purpose and that
affect its ability to achieve the intended outcome(s) of its security printing management system.
4.2 Understanding the needs and expectations of interested parties
The organization shall determine:
— the interested parties that are relevant to the security printing management system;
— the relevant requirements of these interested parties.
Certification is only possible if the organization has followed the regulations of the certification
procedure and if it has established a security printing management system in accordance with the
specifications of this procedure.
4.3 Determining the scope of the security printing management system
The organization shall determine the boundaries and applicability of the security printing management
system to establish its scope.
When determining this scope, the organization shall consider:
— the external and internal issues referred to in 4.1;
— the requirements referred to in 4.2.
The scope shall be available as documented information.
4.4 Security printing management system
The organization shall establish, implement, maintain and continually improve a security printing
management system including the processes needed and their interactions in accordance with the
requirements of this document and including the processes needed as outlined in Annex A and their
interactions.
It is recognized that customer requirements may exceed the requirements of this document, so the
security printing management system also addresses customer requirements that are beyond the
scope of this document.
The organization shall conduct a risk assessment on at least the following:
a) Customer-related risk
EXAMPLE 1 Unauthorized purchase, distribution or illegal use of a product by a customer.
b) Information-related risk
EXAMPLE 2 Unwanted, unintended, prompted or unprompted disclosure of information.
c) Security material, product and waste-related risk
EXAMPLE 3 Theft, damage, sabotage or loss of security materials.
d) Supply chain-related risk
EXAMPLE 4 Any subversion or compromise of the security
