This document concerns IT security in production facilities. It is intended for small and medium-sized enterprises that are looking for a simple procedural model for ensuring IT security in production areas.
In order to raise readers’ awareness of IT security in production facilities, security incidents are presented in section 2. It is clear that cyber attacks on production facilities in this day and age are not random, but are instead based on a targeted process.
An overview of the most important standards and recommendations on the topic of “IT security in production” then follows in section 3.
Section 4 develops a concept for setting up an IT security system for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on the basis of a ten-point plan. The focus is not only on technical measures, but also in particular on the most frequently neglected organizational measures.
Section 5 then describes the outlook for future requirements and solutions in the context of Industry 4.0.
The topic of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) remains an important aspect during the planning, installation and operation of automation systems. Communication networks, such as PROFIBUS and PROFINET, are known to be robust and reliable transmission systems. Nevertheless, it is important that a number of fundamental principles needs to be observed to ensure fault-free operation over a long plant lifetime. This paper first describes a number of principles of EMC. On the basis of these principles, six recommendations for action are then developed which are to be observed during the planning of an automation system for use in the manufacturing industry. Finally, an overview is provided of future work for systems in the process industry.
