Build Customer Confidence in the Security of IIoT Products with CSA Group

Ranging from simple to highly complex, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) products are typically designed to better control our environments. With the increased benefits realized with these cyber-physical systems come (often substantially) increased cybersecurity risks.

Manufacturers of industrial connected devices are expected to have a robust product lifecycle in place that incorporates security risk management at every phase, from design inception through to the end of support. Following a secure product lifecycle process is expected to result in a more secure connected device. Manufacturers are then faced with assuring their customers and product users that their products are equipped with expected security features and are demonstrably secure.

The IEC 62443 standards series is an internationally-recognized set of published standards that establish baseline security expectations and guidance for organizational programs, processes, products, and services. Manufacturers are able to leverage these standards to help implement their security risk management programs and to design and provide secure, trustworthy products, systems, and services.

How can CSA Group help?

With over 100 years of experience, CSA Group helps manufacturers achieve their objectives, enabling them to provide assurance that their processes, products, and services meet established security standards. Some of the ways we can help you include:

  • Technical Information Service (TIS): We work with you to determine the cybersecurity-related standards, guidance, and requirements available and most applicable to your current and impending products, operations, and marketplaces.
  • Cybersecurity Training: We deliver cybersecurity training to you and your team members on the published cybersecurity standards and guidance that are meaningful and important to your organization.
  • Assessments: We work with you to perform assessments of your processes, products, systems, and/or services against one or more published standards, including any custom requirements. Upon successful completion of the assessment, you are presented with a report and letter of attestation or certification (if applicable).
  • System Security and Penetration Testing: We work with you to determine targeted testing objectives and scope, then we perform independent testing of your product security systems, issuing a report with key findings and detailed results.
