Develop a system security plan for an automated production process.

Development is based on a risk assessment. Development includes consideration of

  • policies and governance
  • personnel safety
  • equipment safety
  • digital infrastructure
  • physical security
  • access control
  • monitoring
  • configuration management
  • compensating controls specific to manufacturing systems (e.g., pressure release valves, manual overrides, emergency stops)
  • incident response procedures.

Process/Skill Questions:

  • How can both security and costs be addressed?
  • What role does physical security play in a system security plan?
  • Why is safety more important in manufacturing than in some other industries?
