Industrial Cybersecurity Architecture and Governance: Governance of automation systems in critical environments (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250279833)

Architectural and Governance Framework for Industrial Cybersecurity provides a rigorous and executive-level perspective on how to design, lead, and sustain cybersecurity in complex industrial environments.

In an era defined by digital transformation, IT/OT convergence, and expanding attack surfaces, industrial organizations can no longer treat cybersecurity as a purely technical function. This book explores how secure architecture and effective governance of automation systems become strategic pillars for operational resilience, regulatory compliance, and business continuity.

Through a structured analysis of industrial architectures, risk-based design principles, security models, and governance mechanisms, the book bridges the gap between engineering and executive leadership. It examines how to align cybersecurity strategy with operational priorities, integrate security into system lifecycles, and establish clear accountability at board and executive levels.

More than a technical manual, this work serves as a strategic guide for CISOs, plant managers, automation engineers, risk officers, and decision-makers responsible for protecting critical processes and infrastructures.

Because in industrial environments, cybersecurity is not only about protecting data.

It is about safeguarding production, safety, and the stability of society itself.
