Abstract

To address the need for flexibility of production plants in the process industry, modularization and in particular the Module Type Package Concept described in VDI/VDE/NAMUR 2658 is a widely accepted approach. However, few specific security considerations are made in the state-of-the-art literature for this topic. This paper elaborates on security standards and guidelines to which the Module Type Package should be compliant. Based on this a security analysis of the Module Type Package Concept is performed on the IEC 62443, VDI/VDE 2182, and NIST SP 800-82.
