Network Security

Still catching up on news while I was off the grid and then getting our September issue out.

Wurldtech Security Technologies has now certified 14 devices to its Achilles Certification. It has carved a niche as the place to go for certification for network robustness of industrial control devices. Devices certified thus far have primarily been DCS and SIS controllers, but now the company hopes to expand the program to test other devices that comprise an industrial automation and control system (IACS). These include (according to ISA's component categorization scheme) embedded device, host-based device, network device and applications.
