Recorded Webinars: What is Cybersecurity Hygiene, and How Do I Implement It?
Cybersecurity hygiene is a set of basic practices that can be taken by all personnel to protect the health of hardware and software of computer-based systems. Just as traditional hygiene measures are needed to limit the spread of viruses and disease, cybersecurity hygiene is needed to limit the spread of computer viruses and cybersecurity attacks. Recent studies have shown that well over half of all automation systems have experienced a damaging cybersecurity incident in the last two years. To better protect automation systems against these types of incidents, cybersecurity hygiene is a critical first step. This webinar will provide a deeper look into the importance of cybersecurity hygiene as well as provide actionable steps for improving cybersecurity hygiene within your organization.

News Item: New Training Program Focuses on How to Develop IEC 61508 Family Compliant Products
In today’s market, development of new 61508-compliant products can be thought of as a race to get better products to market, at reduced cost, and with shorter time to market. With so much at stake, do you (and the other members of your organization) truly possess the skills necessary to…
News Item: Case Study: Solvay plant Reduces Downtime, Improves Safety through Alarm Management
The Solvay Novecare plant in Pasadena, Texas had nuisance alarms, critical alarms that weren’t (critical), and production delays due to alarms being missed. A stronger alarm management program was needed to create a safer and more productive plant. Alarm management problems can impact operations directly and indirectly. In Solvay’s case,…

News Item: New Whitepaper: Using the exida Component Reliability Database for New Product Design & Development
Functional Safety is a field of engineering where critical design goals include high reliability and predictable failure (fail-safe). The IEC 61508 family of standards are performance-based standards for functional safety that are commonly applied to the design and development of automatic protection systems in a variety of applications (process industry,…
News Item: Video: Understanding Failure Rates (from the IEC 61511 Perspective)
In this video, Dr. Steve Gandy explains failure rates from the IEC 61511 perspective. He talks about where the failure rates come from, why we need tp make sure we have valid failure rates, and what do we mean by valid failure rates.

Recorded Webinars: Reduce Cost & Time to Market by Improving FMEDA predictions with new Component Reliability Database
Failure Modes, Effects, and Diagnostics Analysis (FMEDA) is a staple in functional safety engineering for design & development of automatic protection systems to the IEC 61508 family of standards (IEC 62061, ISO 26262, IEC 61511). FMEDA is the most common technique for quantitative evaluation of safety and reliability performance metrics and for evaluating whether a product will fail in a predictable manner (fail-safe). Experienced engineers know that FMEDA results, however, are only as good as the failure rate data used to create them and the associated component reliability database (CRD). A new CRD from exida overcomes limitations of current industry reliability handbooks to deliver more accurate results that helps product designers reduce cost and time to market. Integration into the exida FMEDAx tool minimizes the chance of human error and reduces engineering time.

Blog Entry: “Data is King” – Introducing the Sovereign of Component Reliability Databases
With the drive for digitalization and the Internet of Things the expression “Content is King”, coined by Bill Gates, has now been replaced by “Data is King”. This is especially TRUE in functional safety where the safety and reliability predictions generated from a Failure Modes, Effects & Diagnostics Analysis (FMEDA)…

Blog Entry: Closing Two Common IEC 62443 Compliance Gaps
Two common gaps exida encounters when evaluating vendor compliance against the IEC 62443-4-1, IEC 62443-4-2 and IEC 62443-3-3 standards are: Inadequate or unclear Security Guidelines. A lack of documentation on the security audit records (AKA logs). Improving compliance in these areas is also a very cost-effective means of improving security.…
