EC 62443 Cybersecurity for Industrial Systems and Products
IEC 62443 is an internationally recognized framework for cybersecurity in industrial automation and control systems.
It helps organizations manage risks, design secure systems and develop secure products.
We support manufacturers, system integrators and asset owners in implementing IEC 62443 requirements according to their role and responsibilities.
Threat Modelling and Risk Assessment Security Level Definition (SL-T, SL-C, SL-A) IEC 62443-4-1 and 4-2 IEC 62443-3-2 and 3-3 Support for CRA Compliance
Who We Support
Product Manufacturers
Development of secure products and components.
System Integrators
Design and implementation of secure industrial systems.
Asset Owners and Operators
Management of cybersecurity risks and requirements to ensure the safe and sustainable operation of industrial systems and critical infrastructure.
IEC 62443-4-1 and 4-2
Product Manufacturers
We help manufacturers implement the processes and technical measures required to develop secure products.
Secure Development Lifecycle (IEC 62443-4-1)
We support the implementation of the following practices:
- Security Management
- Security Requirements, including security concepts, threat modelling, threat analysis and risk assessment (TARA)
- Secure by Design
- Secure Implementation
- Security Verification and Validation
- Vulnerability and Security Incident Management
- Security Update Management
- Security Guidelines and User Documentation
Security Requirements for Components (IEC 62443-4-2)
We help organizations to:
- assess existing products,
- define the target Security Level Capability (SL-C),
- identify missing security functions,
- prepare supporting evidence for certification.
System Integrators
Design and Implementation of Secure Industrial Systems
System integrators combine multiple products and technologies into a single functional system. As a result, cybersecurity is not only a characteristic of individual products, but of the entire system.
We help organizations to:
- define a security architecture,
- identify security zones and conduits,
- define cyber-security requirements,
- assess risks at the system level,
- evaluate compliance with IEC 62443 requirements,
- implement requirements for the secure provision of services involving access to OT systems.
Asset Owners and Operators
Risk Assessment and Security Levels.
IEC 62443 requires organizations to understand cybersecurity risks and determine the appropriate level of protection. We help organizations to:
- identify assets,
- analyze threats,
- model potential attack scenarios,
- assess cybersecurity risks,
- define the target and achieved Security Level (SL-T, SL-A).
We also support the design and implementation of security measures required to achieve the desired level of cybersecurity.
How We Work with IEC 62443
From Risk Assessment to Secure Products and Systems IEC 62443
Why KINT
We focus on more than individual standards.
We combine:
- cybersecurity,
- systems engineering,
- functional safety,
- industrial domains and critical infrastructure,
- NIS2, CRA and IEC 62443 requirements
This allows us to address the cybersecurity of both products and complete systems within the context of real-world operation.
Not Sure Where to Start?
We help organizations identify which parts of IEC 62443 are relevant to their products, systems or projects and how to implement them effectively.
