IoT & SCADA

In SCADA, IoT, and OT (Operational Technology) security, normative documents are vital for protecting industrial and connected systems that control critical infrastructure. Standards such as IEC 62443 (industrial control systems security), ISO/IEC 27019 (energy sector information security), and NIST SP 800-183 (IoT security guidance) provide structured methods for risk assessment, access control, and secure system design. Regulatory bodies like CISA in the U.S., ENISA in the EU, and sector-specific authorities enforce compliance and issue guidelines to safeguard industrial networks and IoT ecosystems. Following these standards ensures that organizations can prevent unauthorized access, mitigate cyber-physical risks, and maintain operational continuity while meeting legal and industry requirements.
