Bookmark and Share Specific Technical Security Requirements for Industrial Control systems

Summary:

Many of the industrial control systems currently installed were not designed with security as a concern. They were designed to maximize performance, reliability and safety, therefore any security solutions must be bolted on, which is not the most effective solution.  In order to provide more secure industrial control systems in the future, security capabilities need to be designed into future components and systems.  Program staff will assume leadership positions within the ISA99 standards committees to drive innovation and advance technology, specifying the security requirements that vendors will use to develop future products as well as certify those products under the new ISA Security Compliance Institute.
