Safety in the Plant
The WIB standard is designed to fit the needs of the end- user – the system owner/operator - and reflects the unique requirements for industries like petrochemical, energy including smart grid, transportation, pharmaceutical, and chemical among others. The goal was to address cybersecurity best practices and allocate responsibility at the various stages of the industrial system lifecycle: organisational practices, product development, testing and commissioning and maintenance and support.
Harsh, hazardous environments?
...not a problem
To meet the needs for Personnel & Materials Monitoring and Security in Harsh or Hazardous locations, contact Mercury HMI Ltd for ATEX certified equipment.
Rugged construction and ingress protection to IP65 allow the Mercury 2+ Operator Terminal and Sentry Card Reader to be used in Zone 0 (Div. 1) environments at distances of up to 1km. Reader options include EM, HID, Mifare and iClass proximity cards and Weigand swipe cards.
For positive displacement flow meter applications in the oil and petrochemical industries, the VS300 provides a high resolution output of 100 pulses per revolution whilst enabling security checking to IP252/76, ISO 6551 and API Chapter 5.

“Security is not a one-time application but rather a process in which every stakeholder must contribute in order to achieve any significant improvement in operational reliability,” said Auke Huistra, project manager at National Infrastructure against Cyber Crime (NICC). “The WIB requirements are designed with this principle at its core and we are encouraging critical infrastructure stakeholders in The Netherlands to integrate the requirements into their cybersecurity plans.” The requirements were also constructed to address a
broad range of cybersecurity topics relevant to industrial stakeholders; from high-level requirements for vendors’ internal security policies, procedures, and governance, to specific requirements concerning access/authentication, data protection, default password protection and patch management. When a vendor’s solution complies with this set of
requirements, the solution is considered by the WIB to be process control domain security compatible. The requirements are further broken down into three levels designed to reflect various starting points of global suppliers and provide a scalable framework to plan improvements over time. In the programme, there are gold, silver and bronze levels, each consisting of a set requirements designed to verify applicable policies and practices are in place, enabled and practiced by the vendor. ■
