A practical guide to enhancing cybersecurity in industrial automation and control systems.
Today’s automation systems are networked, remotely managed, and increasingly cloud-based, from manufacturing and energy distribution to water utilities. While this brings operational efficiency, it also introduces new risks. Targeted attacks on OT components, such as PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems, are increasing, and regulations like NIS2 and industry-specific standards are putting more pressure on operators.
NIST SP 800-82 Revision 3 offers clear, practical guidance on securing industrial automation systems without compromising availability.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a U.S. government agency whose cybersecurity guidelines are recognized globally as the best practice, especially in the operational technology (OT) space.
The updated SP 800-82r3 guideline goes beyond traditional ICS environments to encompass modern OT architectures, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and hybrid networks. The goal is to offer practical, real-world measures regardless of industry or organization size.
If you’re responsible for OT operations, the following questions may sound familiar:
NIST SP 800-82r3 recommends:
It reflects technological and organizational changes since the 2015 version. Key updates include:
The guideline organizes its recommendations into control families, such as access control, change management, and auditing, that can be directly translated into technical safeguards.
SP 800-82r3 offers a structured framework for those responsible for control systems, production security, and operational uptime.
As regulatory requirements such as NIS2 and IEC 62443 grow, this guide offers a solid foundation for meeting compliance needs in a clear, practical, and operations-focused way.
Revision 3 of Special Publication 800-82 from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is available for direct download as a PDF document.
This international standard defines specific requirements for components, systems, and organizations. Many of the measures outlined in SP 800-82r3 align directly with it.
