Our Mission

Join a day of collaboration on cyber safety standards for engineering, construction and facility management professionals.

  • 1

    The A/E/C industry across all infrastructure sectors incorporate cyber safety practices into their body of knowledge, including engineering minimum requirements and specifications, for infrastructure systems that incorporate digital controls.

  • 2

    Engineers and technicians fully evaluate the potential for disruption and harm from cyber -attacks when designing and integrating digital components into systems.

  • 3

    Control systems are chosen and integrated into physical systems only when an assessment of human safety risks has been completed, and the organization accepts any residual risk after being accurately informed of potential consequences.

  • 4

    Effective and continuing communication is established among owners, operators, designers, maintainers, device manufacturers, and system integrators to support risk-informed decisions concerning the use of control systems in critical infrastructure during the design and construction phase.

  • 5

    Future automation and connected technologies are designed and certified to be cyber resilient.

  • 6

    Cyber risk management early in the system lifecycle results in a more effective and efficient application of cybersecurity controls during design and construction, and enabling resilient operation of critical functions over the life cycle of a facility or system.

  • 7
    The broad range of stakeholders responsible for critical infrastructure are appropriately informed about cyber risks and have a culture of accountability for cyber safety.
  • 8

    Engineered systems are more cost-effective to operate securely over their life cycle, and security controls are more effective because they were built in at the design phase.
