API 780 Security Risk Assessment Methodology for the Petroleum and Petrochemical
Course Description
The API SRA methodology was developed for the petroleum and petrochemical industry, for a broad variety of both fixed and mobile applications. This Standard describes a single methodology rather than a general framework for SRAs, but the methodology is flexible and adaptable to the needs of the user. This methodology constitutes one approach for assessing security vulnerabilities at petroleum and petrochemical industry facilities. However, there are other risk assessment techniques and methods available to industry, all of which share common risk assessment elements. The API SRA methodology is a team-based, standardized approach that combines the multiple skills and knowledge of the various participants to provide a more complete SRA of the facility or operation. Depending on the type and size of the facility or scope of the study, the SRA team may include individuals with knowledge of physical and cyber security, facility and process design and operations, safety, logistics, emergency response, management, and other disciplines as necessary. This course provides complete instruction on how to conduct an SRA to assess security risks and identify potential countermeasures to reduce vulnerabilities. was the contractor selected to develop the API Security Risk Assessment Standard 780.
