As pointed out in earlier editions of the Review of
Maritime Transport, during the last decade, ISO
has been actively engaged in matters of maritime
transport and supply-chain security. Shortly after
the release of the ISPS Code, and to facilitate its
implementation by the industry, the ISO technical
committee ISO/TC 8 published ISO 20858:2007,
“Ships and marine technology – Maritime port
facility security assessments and security plan
development”.
