According to the ISA/IEC 62443-2-1 standard, security policy, organization, and awareness is one of the four foundational requirements for an IACS security management system. It defines the "policies, procedures, and organizational structure necessary to support the security program" 1. One of the elements of this requirement is staff training and security awareness, which involves "providing appropriate security education and training to all personnel who have access to or are responsible for IACS components" 1. This element aims to ensure that the staff are aware of the security risks, policies, and procedures, and are able to perform their roles and responsibilities in a secure manner. Staff training and security awareness can include topics such as security principles, threats and vulnerabilities, incident response, password management, physical security, and social engineering 2.
