The start of Cybersecurity Awareness Month in October offers a timely reason to refocus on securing critical systems. As the industrial internet of things (IIoT) matures, the world's increased level of connectivity also brings increased risk to infrastructure, supply chains and more. Understanding how to mitigate cyber risk in industrial environments will only grow more important for automation professionals.
The International Society of Automation (ISA) has collected eight of its most popular and foundational titles on cybersecurity to create the ISA Cybersecurity Library. The books in this series cover topics as diverse as how organizations can best apply industrial and governmental cybersecurity standards, how to select a network and how to identify hackable scenarios using hazard and operability studies. The Cybersecurity Library is an essential resource for professionals in any industry looking for best practices, principles and case studies in industrial cybersecurity, also known as operational technology (OT) cybersecurity.
The field of OT cybersecurity is growing as frameworks like the ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards help to shed light on its importance. This collection of books represents core reference material in ensuring the safety and security of industrial systems.
ISA's Cybersecurity Library features eight well-regarded titles. The following books are included in the series in printed paperback format:
ISA's Cybersecurity Library is available at a discount when purchasing the full collection. The total list price for each book would add up to 852 USD, but as a collection, it is being offered for 578 USD for ISA members and 724.20 USD for non-members. Automation professionals interested in adding the collection to their own reference library can purchase it directly from ISA.
