Security management
The ISO 27001 and IEC 62443 standards call for a comprehensive approach in IT and OT to
protect against cyber attacks.
Responsibility for cybersecurity and IT security
Every operator of machinery and equipment is responsible for:
• Defining cybersecurity and IT security as an important criterion in the procurement and
selection of machines and software applications
• Use of suitable measures to protect production resources, data, and communication from
manipulation and theft
• Providing all necessary resources and training to employees to fully support these goals
For this purpose, suitable measures must be selected after a risk assessment and a cost-
benefit analysis in order to protect material and intellectual property and prevent damage
from occurring. These measures should be integrated into corporate processes and
procedures, evaluated regularly, and firmly anchored in the corporate culture. In addition to
protecting intellectual property, the protection of personal data must be ensured at all
organizational units and levels.
