ISO 18788:2015, developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), establishes a Security Management System (SMS) for managing private security operations in complex and high-risk environments. It builds upon ANSI/ASIS PSC.1-2012, incorporating the principles of human rights, risk management, accountability, and good governance.
For Iraq — where private security services are integral to oil field protection, logistics, construction, and governmental projects — ISO 18788 ensures that companies operate lawfully, ethically, and in line with international standards such as the Montreux Document and ICoCA (International Code of Conduct Association).
With AGS IRAQ’s experience since 2012, hundreds of private security and protective service providers have successfully achieved ISO 18788 certification, enhancing their credibility and compliance in both local and international markets.
