Committee Purpose
The purpose of the ISA99 committee is to develop and establish standards, recommended practices, technical reports, and related information that will define procedures for implementing electronically secure industrial automation and control systems and security practices and assessing electronic security performance. Guidance is directed towards those responsible for designing, implementing, or managing industrial automation and control systems as defined in the committee scope. This guidance also applies to users, system integrators, security practitioners, and control systems manufacturers and vendors.
The Committee's focus is to improve the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of components or systems used for industrial automation and control and provide criteria for procuring and implementing secure control systems. Compliance with the Committee's guidance will improve system electronic security, and will help identify vulnerabilities and address them, thereby reducing the risk of compromising confidential information or causing degradation or failure of the equipment or process under control.
Committee Governance
All work and activities of the ISA99 committee are governed by the general procedures and rules established by the ISA Standards and Practices board.
