Standard compliance statement
Applicable standards
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
organizations, 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:

NERC CIP v5
IEC 62351
IEEE 1686
* 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.
