C-TPAT (Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) is the voluntary US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program that certifies supply chain companies that meet security requirements, in exchange for faster border inspections. It includes cybersecurity criteria, which is why many importers and their suppliers work on it alongside ISO 27001.
