NEW REGULATORY FRAMEWORK BY ISRAEL MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENTAL – CYBERSECURITY MONITORING AT ICS LEVEL 0

Highlights the significance of Cybersecurity Monitoring at ICS Level 0. Regulation compliance targeted at 1,600 Israeli entities handling hazardous materials In any given state or country, there are thousands of manufacturing plants and facilities which hold and use hazardous materials as part of their production processes. Failures in the production, storage or transportation systems of these plants may result in severe damage to public health and the environment. In most cases, these systems are operated, automated and controlled by computerized systems, or ICS (Industrial Control Systems), so a cyber event can potentially cause a failure or disruption in the computerized system and lead to a catastrophic hazardous materials event. Examples of hazardous events that may occur due to a cyber incident: Emissions of gases that endanger the public Explosions ...
