BS EN ISO 19650-5:2020 PDF Download

What is this standard about?

Written – and numbered – to replace PAS 1192-5 – this international standard sets out requirements for the security-minded management of sensitive information within building information modelling (BIM).

Who is this standard for?

Any organization involved in the use of digital engineering and technologies in the creation, design, construction, manufacture, operation, management, modification, improvement, demolition and/or recycling of assets or products, as well as the provision of services, within the built environment.

It will also be of interest and relevance to organizations wishing to protect their commercial information, personal data and intellectual property or to prevent ongoing distribution.  

Why should you use this standard?

When you share information through the processes specified in ISO 19650, it can inadvertently lead to the exposure of sensitive information about a building, facility or infrastructure asset to people who’ll seek to use it against the public good. Taking a security minded approach to the organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works will reduce this risk.

This standard will help reduce the risk of loss, misuse or modification of sensitive information that could impact on the safety, security and resilience of assets, the built environment, or the services provided by or from them.

It will also protect against the loss, theft or disclosure of commercial information, personal data and intellectual property and reduce the impacts of security breaches, which include reputational damage, diversion of resources, fines for regulatory breaches and disruption to day-to-day operational activities.

What’s changed since the last update?

This standard is based on PAS 1192-5:2015 and is an internationalized version of that standard.
