Free Standards - COVID-19
The SABS has decided to make specific standards available free of charge in order to assist with the global effort of dealing with the COVID-19 crisis. Please see the table below for the list of standards.
In order to get a standard, customers have to follow the usual buying process. If they do not have a profile, they have to create one (Log in – Register). After creating the profile, search for the standard from the list and follow the screens to “purchase” the standard. The easiest is to search by using only the SANS number (even without the SANS designation). No payment will be required. After the order has been placed, Webstore Support will (during the course of the working day) make the standard available for downloading.
In order to download the PDF standard, the customer needs to log in to the store and then from the menus on the left, choose the option – My Downloads. Click to start downloading the standard.
If you experience any problems in obtaining the standard, please contact SABS Webstore Support:
