- TÜV Süd certified process for system integration and solution project processing in conformity with IEC 62443-2-4 and -3-3
- Security documentation in conformity with IEC 62443
- Implementation of certified solutions with Simatic PCS 7
- Standardized processes reduce outlay for customers
Siemens is the world's first company to gain TÜV SÜD certification for the secure system integration of process automation and drive solutions in compliance with the international IEC 62443-2-4 standards. The integration projects, verified on the basis of two standard solutions in the oil & gas processing industry and in a waste incineration plant, have been certified in conformity with IEC 62443-2-4 and -3-3 and were implemented using the Simatic PCS 7 process control system. The projects involved process automation, drive solutions and comprehensive security measures and functions designed to deliver secure plant operation. The certification has a whole range of advantages to offer for customers: plant operators benefit from the precise definition of requirements, the implementation of standardized automation solutions and processes, and from the availability of documentation in conformance with standards. This documentation provides a vital foundation for verifying compliance with the technical requirements of the IT Security Act and other cyber security standards, for the sustainable improvement of IT and OT system security, and for guaranteeing the security of general supplies. The system solutions are used in sectors involving a critical infrastructure, such as waste management and the oil and gas industry.
