The CRF will serve as an official UN policy position statement for Europe. At its recent annual meeting in Geneva, UNECE\u2019s Working Party on\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This is undoubtedly great news for all professionals concerned that <strong>industrial and critical infrastructure environments are becoming more secure and less vulnerable<\/strong> to the different existing threats.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>IEC 62443<\/strong> standard is a set of standards based on the concepts defined by the <strong>ISA99<\/strong> standard, which in turn proposes a series of documents that establish best practices and recommendations to increase the security of industrial control systems against cyber threats (mainly). With the purpose of aligning the nomenclature of <strong>ISA99<\/strong> to the proposal made by the <strong>IEC<\/strong>, in 2010, <strong>ISA99<\/strong> is renamed <strong>ANSI\/ISA-62443<\/strong> or <strong>IEC 62443<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>The <strong>ISA 99<\/strong> standard defines four specific documents and two technical reports. As can be seen in the following figure, this standard has been divided into four layers. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The first, called <strong><em>General <\/em><\/strong> includes four documents. They propose the basic concepts and context on which the following layers of the standard are developed. <\/li>\n<li>The second, called <strong><em>Policies &amp; Procedures<\/em><\/strong> also includes four documents. As its name indicates, it focuses on the definition of policies and procedures. <\/li>\n<li>The third layer is that of <strong><em>System<\/em><\/strong> and consists of three documents. It focuses on proposing best practices for the secure deployment of systems in industrial environments. <\/li>\n<li>Finally, the fourth layer, called <strong><em>Component <\/em><\/strong>includes two documents and addresses the requirements that manufacturers of industrial devices must meet to be considered Secured by Design.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All these documents are in different phases of development. As can be seen in the following, their status can be: published, published but under review, in development and planned. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Figure.

In environments as complex and extensive as industrial ones, it would not be logical to implement prevention, detection, response and recovery measures, and also develop specific controls, in the same way for all systems and\/or process areas. For this reason, this document proposes a method to create areas that have the same security requirements and, on the other hand, proposes mechanisms for communication between these different areas to be carried out securely.  <\/p>\n<p>We leave you this <a href=\"https:\/\/ucys.ugr.es\/jnic2016\/docs\/ActasJNIC2016.pdf\">link to the proceedings of the National Cybersecurity Conference (JNIC) held
