Introduction
While private security is regulated by legislation in each country, there is a growing need for the use of
common terminology and concepts. This document describes the common terms in the standards that
are produced or maintained by the CEN/TC 439 “Private Security Services”. The primary goal is to ensure
that the users of the CEN/TC 439 standards understand the common terms they face while reading the
standards. Secondarily, this standard contains terms that may not occur in any standard drafted and
maintained by CEN/TC 439. These are defined for the purpose of achieving common understanding in
general.
Terms that are specific to individual sectors (e.g. airport or maritime) are defined within sector
standards. An up-to-date portfolio of CEN/TC 439 standards can be found on the CEN website.
This document is the second edition. There are two main changes compared with the first edition. Firstly,
several terms have been added and some have been deleted. Secondly, this edition comes with an
introduction.
