Learn a proven and fundamentally practical methodology for managing cybersecurity in industrial systems without the need to be cybersecurity experts. One of the worst threats to an organization's success is that everyone involved has a different idea of what needs to be done and how best to achieve it. The WBS (Work breakdown Structure) methodology provides a practical approach to successfully implement management while meeting all the requirements of the ISA/IEC-62443 series of standards, harmonizing with popular regulations without getting lost. Understand all the necessary activities to be carried out with the minimum necessary inputs and outputs to be produced as a result. Assess risks and make the right decisions. Influence the design of industrial systems and the plant, so that all risks are mitigated with minimal resources. Minimize the risks of poor implementation. Comply with and certify the activities as they are carried out. Keep all participants, users, and vendors on the same page and avoid frustration. Produce the necessary evidence ready to submit to a certificate authority.

Execute and comply with the requirements of the ISA/IEC-62443 series of standards for the Cyber Risk Assessment (ASSESSMENT) phase. Harmonize with the requirements of popular regulations, such as NERC/CIP, C2M2 and others. Develop clarity about the deliverables to be produced at the end of each of the activities. Execute all activities successfully, making optimal use of resources and time. Correctly identify the system under study, whether these systems are existing or future. Assess the organization's capabilities, best practices, and identify potential opportunities for improvement. Identify all possible consequences that should be avoided and mitigated during decision-making. Learn how to conduct reasonable and appropriate vulnerability assessments for accurate risk assessment. Participate in and/or lead a detailed cyber risk assessment based on realistic consequences. Help make good decisions in a way that is consistent with other industrial risk disciplines. Develop a clear and effective action plan for risk reduction in accordance with the company's risk matrix and risk tolerance.

Understand and use the results of the Cyber Risk Assessment (EN60 Course) to influence the design of new (future) systems and the redesign of existing systems to achieve effective and sufficient risk mitigation. Learn a proven work methodology, based on years of experience to mitigate all intolerable risks effectively and efficiently, as soon as possible, without wasting time. Design, specify, and implement monitoring, detection, and alert strategies without false positives for a timely and accurate response. Prioritize the implementation of security recommendations based on their greatest contribution to risk reduction, lower costs and efforts, greater ability to meet the security level, etc. Define and configure the appropriate cybersecurity policies for each zone and pipeline. Develop security acceptance tests.

Assist the safe operation of the plant through strategies and systems for monitoring, detection, alerting and management of response plans in an assertive manner and without false positives. Integrate with corporate SOC-OT applications for bi-directional exchange of security information. Develop and implement industrial systems upgrade strategies appropriately. Develop and implement change management processes in industrial systems, maintaining security levels without degrading. Plan and develop preventative maintenance activities for industrial systems for zone and duct safety. Manage and maintain backup and recovery processes and systems. Develop and execute periodic safety audits of industrial systems in zones and ducts. Prepare to have the system certified by the certificate authority.

Manage the lifecycle of security alerts according to the implementation of countermeasures and current risks for each zone and pipeline. Learn best practices to improve alert and response system performance. Develop learning methods to solve common alert management problems. Learn about best practices for effective and successful alert management system implementation. Integrate cybersecurity alerts with industrial process alarms. Avoid generating false security alerts that lead to no action or create distractions from valuable resources. Design responses to security alerts before they happen with fast, accurate responses. Develop the metrics for success in alert management and continuous improvement.
