Workshop on Standardization for Perimeter Security

The final report from this ANSI-HSSP Workshop was published in January 2007.  To obtain a copy, please contact the ANSI-HSSP Secretary.

The agenda and presentations from the Perimeter Security Summit and ANSI-HSSP Workshop meeting from which this report was generated are available for public viewing.

In lieu of the standards matrix that is typically found in ANSI-HSSP final deliverables, this report seeks to help frame the issue and challenges of perimeter security, and then provide some preliminary considerations for those developing standards in this sphere.  The report has also been submitted to the DHS S&T Standards Office and the DHS Office of Infrastructure Protection for further dialogue.

The ANSI-HSSP will continue to monitor the issue of perimeter security standardization and if any new developments or compelling needs arise that would necessitate re-activating this Workshop, information will be posted to this website.
