The ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards is organized into four main categories for documents, based on the topics and perspectives that they cover. These categories are: General, Policies and Procedures, System, and Component12.
General: This category covers topics that are common to the entire series, such as terms, concepts, models, and overview of the standards1. For example, ISA/IEC 62443-1-1 defines the terminology, concepts, and models for industrial automation and control systems (IACS) security3.
Policies and Procedures: This category focuses on methods and processes associated with IACS security, such as risk assessment, system design, security management, and security program development1. For example, ISA/IEC 62443-2-1 specifies the elements of an IACS security management system, which defines the policies, procedures, and practices to manage the security of IACS4.
System: This category is about requirements at the system level, such as security levels, security zones, security lifecycle, and technical security requirements1. For example, ISA/IEC 62443-3-3 specifies the system security requirements and security levels for zones and conduits in an IACS5.
Component: This category provides detailed requirements for IACS products, such as embedded devices, network devices, software applications, and host devices1. For example, ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 specifies the technical security requirements for IACS components, such as identification and authentication, access control, data integrity, and auditability.
The other options are not valid categories for documents in the ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards, as they either do not reflect the structure and scope of the standards, or they mix different aspects of IACS security that are covered by different categories. For example, end-user, integrator, vendor, and regulator are not categories for documents, but rather roles or stakeholders that are involved in IACS security. Assessment, mitigation, documentation, and maintenance are not categories for documents, but rather activities or phases that are part of the IACS security lifecycle. People, processes, technology, and training are not categories for documents, but rather elements or dimensions that are essential for IACS security.
