The Board of Executive Protection Professionals (BEPP) has commenced the process of creating American National Standard Institute (ANSI)-approved "Standards for Providing Executive Protection." BEPP currently seeks industry professionals to collaborate on their standard development process, set to take place over the next two years.

The BEPP is composed of security leaders who will manage the process of creating the first Executive Protection National Standard. Once approved, this standard will be registered with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), a private, nonprofit organization that oversees the creation of standards for various processes, products, systems, services and personnel in nearly every business sector in the United States.
