What is the USISTF?. US-Israel Science and Technology Foundation is the funding and administrative arm of the US-Israel Science and Technology Commission (USISTC)Bilateral initiative established by the US Dept. of Commerce and Israel Ministry of Industry and Trade in 1994 to foster scientific, technological, and economic cooperation between the peoples of the US and Israel.Promotes binational science

3. Program Objectives Develop a blueprint for action for U.S. and Israeli private, public, and governmental entities.
“Proof of concept” of an integrated security management system built on existing tools and standards.
Provide the public and private sectors with relevant guidelines for an integrated security management system that are consistent with existing management system approaches, guidelines, and standards.
4. Why a Management System? Provides a set of benchmarked tools and processes
Helps to systematically identify risks and problems, as well as problem-solving tools
Inclusive process
Provides specialized training
Establishes operational controls and procedures
Creates measurable goals and methods for accomplishing identified objectives
5. Why Use Existing Standards? Facilitates joint audits
Promotes parallel assessments
Potential benefits and savings in case of certification and third-party registration
Avoids conflict and/or duplication
More easily understood & implemented
Leverages management buy-in
Combines “loss leaders”
Accelerates development and action
6. Project Timeline Planning group established
Oversees project implementation
USISTF, MOE, SII, OFEE, and Israel Police Security Division
Stakeholder Meeting: March 10-11, 2004 Washington, DC
Established a clear blueprint for the steps involved in planning and implementation of the demonstration projects including the drafting of guidelines, protocols, and benchmarks for the conduct of the demonstration projects
Established bi-national working groups to develop and oversee demonstration projects
Agreement on information sharing and the protection of sensitive information
July 15, 2004 - Request for Applications for pilot studies closed
August 10, 2004 – Binational Peer Review Panel concludes application reviews
August 10-12, 2004 – Binational Working Group One meets at SII in Tel Aviv
Drafts Security Management Standard drawn on elements derived from the current ISO 9001 (quality management), ISO 14001 (environmental management), BSI 18001 (occupational health and safety) standards and the new NFPA 1600 (disaster/emergency management and business continuity programs) standards
Standard and guidelines to be used as baseline in all pilot projects
September – October 2004:
Pilots recommended by reviewers refined and finalized
Meetings with US DHS to identify pilot sites of major national impact and collaboration
Development of in-house pilot projects
November 2004 – November 2005
Pilot project underway
7. Stakeholder Meeting: March 2004 Identified the approach, procedures, outcomes, and metrics necessary to create an integrated security management system
Recommended use of the "Plan, Do, Check, Act" PDCA model & ISO-14001
Precursor to the launch of proof-of-concept pilot demonstration projects
8. Working Groups Group One: To develop products and guidelines
Group Two: Oversees implementation with pilots. Including serving as project resource, and ensuring milestones are on track. (implementation metrics)
Group Three: To develop metrics for system performance and security assurance (performance metrics)
Group Four: To monitor progress and work products in the interest of ultimate converting the information to an international standard. This group may begin writing Guide 72 Justification Document in parallel.
9. Common Elements Policy
Planning
Implementation and operation
Performance assessment
Improvement
Management review
10. An Effective Management System Flexible
Transparent
Useful to the “practitioner”
In harmony with mission focus
Focused on continual improvement
11. Plan-Do-Check-Act Model (PDCA) Continual Improvement
12. Key Elements of Integrated PDCA Management System Policy statement/commitment
Identification and prioritization of significant vulnerabilities and impacts
Development of objectives and targets
Implementation plan to meet objectives and targets
Checking and follow-up
Training
Management review
13. Guiding Principles of Project Market Relevance
Meet demonstrated market needs
Encourage competitiveness and innovation
Avoid unnecessary burden
Avoid complexity
Should not imposed trade barriers
Used to achieve performance goals
Valued added to business and operations
14. Rationale for Using EMS Approach Much of an Environmental Management System (EMS) may already be in place
Key is to use a systematic approach to planning, controlling and improving security efforts
Can be a vehicle for positive change
15. Security Management Standard
16. Planning
17. Implementation and Operation
18. Checking and Corrective Action
19. Management Review Process
20. Objectives of Pilot Case Studies Create a set of guidelines and tools for wide-ranging implementation of integrated security management systems across industry, service, business, and governmental sectors
Test proof of concept prior to initiating the discussion of the mechanics of developing a standard
Provide the basis for either developing a set of guidelines as the end product, and/or providing the experience and data necessary to proceed with the “Justification Study Process” of developing a standard defined in the ISO Guide 72:2001(E)
