Cyber security issues have been the subject of standardization initiatives by ISA,
IEEE, or IEC for some time and ABB plays an active role in all these
or
ganizations, helping to define and implement cyber security standards for power
and industrial control systems.
Some of the cyber security standards which are most important for substation
automation are still under active development such as IEC62351 and IEC62443
(former ISA S99). ABB is participating in the development by delegating subject
matter experts to the committee working on the respective standard. Since these
standards are still under development ABB strongly recommends to use existing
common security measures as available on the market, for example, VPN for
secure Ethernet Communication.
An overview of applicable security standards and their status is shown in Table
22:
Table 22: Overview of cyber security standards
Standard Main focus Status
NERC CIP v5 NERC CIP cyber security
regulation for North American
power utilities
Released, ongoing *
IEC 62351 Data and communications
security
Partly released, ongoing
IEEE 1686 IEEE standard for substation
intelligent electronic devices
(IEDs) cyber security
capabilities
Finalized
* Ongoing: major changes will affect the final solution.
ABB has identified cyber security as a key requirement and has developed a large
number of product features to support international cyber security standards such
as NERC-CIP, IEEE1686, as well as local activities like the German BDEW white
paper.
The two standards IEC 62351 and IEC 62443 are still under revision. Due to
interoperability reasons ABB recommend not to implement these standards yet.
Nevertheless, ABB considers these standards already today as a guideline to
implement product features or system architectures.
