ONEKEY Webinar: The Secure Development Lifecycle: Unlocking IEC 62443 Part 4-1 for Industrial Automation and Control Systems

Secure product development is becoming increasingly important as manufacturers of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) face growing cybersecurity threats, stricter customer expectations, and evolving regulatory requirements.

While IT organizations have long-established security practices, developing secure products for Operational Technology (OT) environments presents unique challenges. Industrial products must not only protect data but also ensure the safety, integrity, and availability of critical processes throughout their entire lifecycle.

IEC 62443 has become the leading international cybersecurity standard for industrial automation, providing a comprehensive framework for securing IACS products and development processes. For product manufacturers, IEC 62443 Part 4-1 defines the requirements for implementing a Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL), ensuring that cybersecurity is embedded into products from design through deployment and maintenance.

Implementing a Secure Development Lifecycle with IEC 62443 Part 4-1

Building secure industrial products requires more than security testing at the end of development. Cybersecurity must become an integral part of engineering processes from the very beginning.

In this webinar, we provide a practical introduction to IEC 62443 Part 4-1 and explain how manufacturers can establish a secure development lifecycle that aligns with internationally recognized cybersecurity best practices.

Participants will learn how the standard supports secure product development, risk management, vulnerability handling, security testing, and long-term maintenance throughout the entire product lifecycle.

Preparing Industrial Products for Compliance

Beyond improving product security, IEC 62443 Part 4-1 also helps organizations establish structured development processes that support customer requirements, certification efforts, and regulatory expectations.

We explain how manufacturers can integrate security into their development organization, understand the standard's core requirements, and prepare for successful implementation.
