Service Tests Cyber-security Compliance

March 5, 2010
The Security Policy Validation Service tests the compliance of installed process control systems with existing security policies, to ensure compliance with government and corporate objectives for cyber security.
The vendor’s service engineers with knowledge of the vendor’s control systems and all aspects of control system security provide compliance auditing, compliance testing and remediation. Validation engineers audit and test policies using a representational off-line system, based on the installed system architecture. Specialized tools and reports are used to identify configuration settings that are non-compliant with policy standards. Recommendations and remedial activities are provided to bring the system into compliance. Some software upgrades and major system changes may require additional proposals, based on the scope of work and software required to bring the system into compliance. The service is available for Symphony Harmony/INFI90 and Extended Automation System 800xA, including Connect products: PLC Connect, Harmony Connect, MOD 300 Connect, and System Six Connect. Optional on-going compliance support services are available to manage intentional or unintentional changes that may affect compliance, ie: replacement of PCs, reloads, upgrades, new threats and other causes.ABBwww.abb.com800.HELP.365
