Which road should you take?
Cybersecurity attacks on industrial control systems (ICS) are now considered a credible risk. Due to this risk, the demand for Cybersecurity Automation Personnel Certification per IEC 62443 is greatly increasing. The question now becomes, which path is best suited for you in your organization/company? How do you get the most out of your certification? This presentation will describe the different Cybersecurity paths for personnel per IEC 62443 for those seeking Certification.
Prescriptive BMS standards contain a wealth of knowledge on combustion hazards, unit sequence of operation, and the equipment configuration required for combustion safeguards and combustion control. This experience cannot be overlooked; there is just not a Safety Lifecycle to tie in the Functional Safety Management of the BMS. That being…

Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) have traditional been configured manually using different source documents such as the Safety Requirement Specification (SRS), Cause and Effect matrices (CEM), Safety Integrity Level (SIL) calculations, and I/O definition among other information. Emerson partnered with exida to deliver a database-based solution that enables automatic configuration of…
The article entitled Getting Realistic Failure Rate Data is featured in the July 2018 Advancing Automation Safety Innovations eBook published by Automation.com. The discipline of Reliability Engineering depends upon a key metric: failure rate. In the past, it was practical to perform a “life test,” where by a set of…
By now we’ve all become familiar with safety integrity levels (SIL), as they have become part of our everyday lives. However, with the recent release of several cybersecurity standards in the IEC 62443 series, things are getting more complicated. This series of standards introduces two more levels that we will…
