SUMMARY:Using the ISA/IEC 62443 Standards to Secure Your Control Systems (IC32)
DESCRIPTION:Course #: IC32 | CEUs: 1.4 | Length: 2 days | Hours: 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. | A certificate of completion indicating the total number of CEUs earned will be provided upon successful course completion. \nUsing the ISA/IEC 62443 Standards to Secure Your Control Systems (IC32) provides a detailed look at how the ISA/IEC 62443 standards framework can be used to protect critical control systems. It also explores the procedural and technical differences between the security for traditional IT environments and those solutions appropriate for SCADA or plant floor environments. \nWith the move to using open standards\, such as Ethernet\, Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)\, and web technologies\, in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and process control networks (PCN)\, systems are being exposed to the same cyberattacks facing corporate information systems\, protecting control systems is more important than ever. \n\nCertificate Program: This is a preparatory class for the ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Certificate Program. The course registration includes the fee for one exam. \n\nWho Should Take IC32?\n\nControl systems engineers and managers\nSystem integrators\nIT Engineers and managers at industrial facilities\nPlant managers\nPlant safety and risk management\n\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nDiscuss the principles behind creating an effective long-term program security\nInterpret the ISA/IEC 62443 industrial security framework and apply them to your operation\nDefine the basics of risk and vulnerability analysis methodologies\nDescribe the principles of security policy development\nExplain the concepts of defense in depth and zone/conduit models of security\nAnalyze the current trends in industrial security incidents and methods hackers use to attack a system\nDefine the principles behind the key risk mitigation techniques\, including anti-virus and patch management\, firewalls and virtual private networks\nDescribe how secure software development strategies can make systems inherently more secure\nExplain how systems security is verified\n\n\nTopics Covered\n\nUnderstanding the Current Industrial Security Environment\n\nWhat is electronic security for industrial automation and control systems (IACSs)?\nHow IT and the plant floor are different and how they are the same\n\n\nHow Cyberattacks Happen\n\nUnderstanding the threat sources\nSteps to successful cyberattacks\n\n\nCreating A Security Program\n\nCritical factors for success\n\n\nUnderstanding the ANSI/ISA-62443-2-1 (ANSI/ISA-99.02.01-2009)\, Security for industrial automation and control systems\, Part 2-1: Establishing an industrial automation and control systems security program\nRisk Analysis\n\nBusiness rationale\nRisk identification\nClassification\nAssessment\n\n\nAddressing Risk with Security Policy\, Organization\, and Awareness\n\nCybersecurity management system scope\nOrganizational security\nStaff training and security awareness\n\n\nAddressing Risk with Selected Security Counter Measures\n\nPersonnel security\nPhysical and environmental security\nNetwork segmentation\nAccess control\n\n\nAddressing Risk with Implementation Measures\n\nRisk management and implementation\nSystem development and maintenance\nInformation and document management\n\n\nMonitoring and Improving the CSMS\n\nCompliance and review\nImprove and maintain the cyber security management system (CSMS)\n\n\nValidating or Verifying the Security of Systems\n\nWhat is being done?\nDeveloping secure products and systems\n\n\n\n\nExercise\nPCAP live capture analysis \n\nResources Included*\n\nISA-62443-1-1-2007\, Security for Industrial automation and control systems – Part 1-1: Terminology\, concepts and models\nISA-62443-2-1 (99.02.01)-2009\, Security for industrial automation and control systems – Part 2-1: Establishing an industrial automation and control systems security program\nISA-62443-3-3 (99.03.03)-2013\, ISA-62443-3-3 (99.03.03)-2013\, Security for industrial automation and control systems – Part 3-3: System security requirements and security levels\n\n  \n*PDF format only. \n\nRecommended Prerequisites\n\nThere are no required prerequisites for taking this course; however\, it is highly recommended that applicants have at least one to three years of experience in the cybersecurity field with some experience in an industrial setting. IC32 is a 14-hour boot camp-style class\, and there is not much time to teach basic commands and cybersecurity.\nISA courses: TS07\, TS12\, or the equivalent knowledge/experience would be beneficial.\nNote from the Instructor: One of the challenges I have had in teaching IC32 is students attending without any or limited knowledge of ISA courses TS07\, TS12 or cybersecurity general principles.\n\n\nRecommended Reading\n\nCybersecurity Library\n“Industrial Automation and Control System Security Principles\,” Second Edition\, by Ronald L. Krutz\, PhD\, PE\n\n\nNot sure this particular course is for you? Take an IC32 knowledge check designed to evaluate your level of understanding of the course material and show you the types of questions you’ll be able to answer after completing the course.
