ISA/IEC 62443 provides a comprehensive framework for securing industrial control systems through integrated policies, processes and technical controls. Rather than treating security as a checklist exercise, the standard emphasizes a holistic approach that engages technology, people and governance structures to build resilience against evolving threats while ensuring operational continuity and regulatory compliance.

The session, led by Erik Faustino Maran of Westcon, will explore:

• The modular structure of ISA/IEC 62443, covering governance, risk assessment, access control, system integrity and compliance requirements;
• Implementing security-by-design and defense-in-depth principles to protect critical assets throughout their operational life cycle;
• Tailoring continuous adoption strategies to organizational operational profiles, threat landscapes and workforce capabilities.
