You experience how the concepts and contents of ISA/IEC 62443 can be used for the protection of operating facilities. The instructor will help you step by step through the elements of holistic Security Protection Schemes. You will learn about the contributions of product suppliers, service providers and asset owners in each phase of the life cycle of an operating facility.

Asset owners: Manager of operating facilities, Responsible for IT networks of operating facilities, CISO / ISO / Responsible for cybersecurity of operating facilities, Responsible for policies and procedures
Service providers: System architects, Project leaders, CISO / ISO / Responsible for cybersecurity in projects, Responsible for policies and procedures
Product suppliers: CISO / ISO / Responsible for cybersecurity in development

Learning targets:
Asset owners get to know which support they can request from service providers and product suppliers. Also how to protect their operating facilities, and which is their own contribution.
Service providers experience which capabilities regarding processes and technologies are necessary for developing risk-based protection concepts. They also learn about their activities and the scope of their responsibilities in the development of a Security Protection Scheme. The contributions of product suppliers to support the development and operation of Security Protection Schemes will be described.
