Cyber Security for System 800xA
Workshop goal
Customers increasingly develop cyber security awareness - Utilize the System 800xA security model and apply its
for control systems and demand security solutions from security mechanisms (user roles, permissions,
ABB. Students learn different approaches to cyber security passwords, audit trail, authentication, digital signatures,
for a careful planning and implementation of security and security reports).
measures. They get an understanding of cyber security - Describe and utilize remote access solutions.
mechanisms and solutions for control systems and explore
in depth the System 800xA security model. As a result of this - Describe whitelisting solutions.
workshop the student will be prepared to address control
system security solutions.
