Cybersecurity Certification in Industry

Security for Industry 4.0

With the increasing digitalization and connectivity of industrial systems, the risk of cyberattacks is also growing. Production lines, automation systems, industrial networks, and control systems are now interconnected, making cybersecurity a key part of secure and uninterrupted operations.

IEC 62443 is an internationally recognized series of standards for cybersecurity of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS). The standard provides a structured approach to identifying risks, protecting systems, and managing cybersecurity throughout their lifecycle.

Where does IEC 62443 apply?

IEC 62443 is applicable in various industrial sectors, including:

  • manufacturing and processing industry;
  • energy and infrastructure;
  • automotive industry
  • transport and railway systems;
  • medical technology;
  • industrial automation and robotics.

The standard covers the different levels of the industrial ecosystem – operators, system integrators and manufacturers of components and solutions.

Security Levels

IEC 62443 uses a concept of IEC 62443 uses a concept of, which determines the level of protection according to the risk and type of potential threats. In this way, security measures can be adapted to the specific needs of the system.
