6. 6 Automation Standards Compliance Institute ISCI Program Overview Mission Statement “The organization’s mission is to decrease the time, cost, and risk of developing, acquiring, and deploying control systems by establishing a collaborative industry-based program among asset owners, suppliers, and other stakeholders to:  Facilitate the independent testing and certification of control system products to a defined set of control system security standards;  Use existing control system security industry standards, where available, develop or facilitate development of interim standards where they don’t already exist, and adopt new standards when they become available;  Accelerate the development of industry standards that can be used to certify that control systems products meet a common set of security requirements. The standards, tests, and conformance processes for control systems products will allow the products to be securely integrated. An ultimate goal is to push the conformance testing into the product development life cycle so that the products are intrinsically secure.”

8. 8 Automation Standards Compliance Institute ISCI Benefits to Asset Owners For asset owners, a well designed and managed product security certification process results in reduced costs and time commitment in product selection and deployment. Key benefits include:  Certification saves time and costs for validation and verification of security capabilities.  Certification provides assurances that products are more secure ‘out of the box’, leading to improved process reliability and safety.  The security certification stamp provides instant recognition of product characteristics and capabilities.  Asset owners are able to specify and successfully procure compliant products that interoperate.  Certification can mitigate government security compliance regulation with full industry participation.  Organizations are positioned favorably for insurance requirements that may be emerging for security compliance levels.  The same kind of assurance “stamp” that exists for safety will exist.  The program leverages industry capabilities for reduced overall cost of delivery.

9. 9 Automation Standards Compliance Institute ISCI Benefits to Suppliers and Integrators For suppliers and integrators, the certification process provides a single compliance framework and an industry stamp of approval, resulting in faster time to market and lower development and integration costs. Key benefits include:  Suppliers are able to make and substantiate clear claims of compliance to a consensus open, industry standard.  Certification responds to a common need for a shared security vision to be executed by suppliers, asset owners, and consultants. This helps suppliers build what users want.  The program provides security requirements guidance from industry to suppliers based on testing standards.  The program addresses the security characteristics of the product that allow it to be integrated into a larger system.
