Digitalization without cybersecurity is like a car without a steering wheel. Learn the fundamentals of cybersecurity. Sign up and take a TÜV Rheinland exam.
You will have the necessary knowledge to successfully deal with the cyber security challenges in the context of architecture, specification, operation, management and maintenance of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) according to the relevant standard IEC 62443
You will have an essential understanding of Cybersecurity technical and application fundamentals in the context of industrial communication networks and relevant technologies
TÜV Rheinland recommends to attend this training before attending any advanced trainings of the TÜV Rheinland Cyber Security Training Program and to finally obtain a “CySec Specialist (TÜV Rheinland)” certificate.
This training is intended for technicians, engineers, developers, system integrators, consultants and managers involved in the specification, design, development, maintenance, operations and management of any IACS.
In general for interested persons with a need to understand the requirements and objectives of cyber security in the context of IACS.
There are no specific requirements for delegates wishing to attend this training course, however a basic knowledge of IACS, industrial communication networks and IT-/OT interface user knowledge would be beneficial.
Cyber security in the context of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) is getting more and more important. In the age of digitalization, there is nothing more important than protecting data – not just typical company business data, but data related to the industrial production processes too. Worldwide, a permanently increasing number of industrial companies of any size and sector have already been the target of cyber attacks. Many companies are aware that cyber crime poses a danger, but underestimate the costly consequences to their machinery, plant equipment and more important to Safety, Health and Environment (SHE). Industrial or IACS Cyber Security helps in preventing failures, sabotage, or data loss, and thus protect production operations against significant financial losses.
Different standards, frameworks and guidelines define requirements related to IACS Cyber Security, where the international series of standards ISA/IEC 62443 is considered one of the most important ones. To understand the details of ISA/IEC 62443 and its requirements a fundamental knowledge of cyber security related topics is of key importance.
This training ends with an exam. If the participant has passed the exam then the participant will receive a certificate. If the participant only attended the training and did not take the exam or completed it with a failing grade then the participant will receive a certificate of participation.
