ISA Pune Section

How's that for nostalgia! I came across this folder in my possession which was for an event held by ISA INDIA SECTION way back in 1985! International Society of Automation (ISA) was known as Instrument Society of America then, and India had only one Section based in Mumbai (then known as Bombay!) and this event was 'Micro-Expo 1985 - National Conference in Microprocessor-based Indl Instrumentation and Control Systems' held in Baroda (now Vadodara). I was not in ISA then being a freshman in corporate life, the event was attended by my bosses.

Here's the link to recording of our highly successful TechTalk on Safety Instrumented Systems fundamentals (SIS) by Mr. PRAMOD PARIKH on ISA Pune's platform. A lot of interest was shown by the participants .. watch this space for future program announcements! https://lnkd.in/dAV5ptr3

It gives us great pleasure to announce that we commenced training of our current batch on IC-32 + IC-33 part of ISA/IEC 62443 Cyber Security today! This is the best ICS/OT security course that you can undergo to enhance your Cyber Security skills and career path. One of the most common questions on ICS/OT certificates is what is ISA/IEC 62443 course? Here is how the main certifications can be explained: ISA 62443 Cybersecurity Expert Series The ISA 62443 standard(s) is considered the de facto framework for securing ICS/OT networks. ISA (International Society of Automation (ISA) put together a course to: - Understand how to implement ISA 62443 - The fundamentals of cyber security in ICS/OT As the graphic shows, it consists of 4 parts which can be taken in 2 parts: IC-32 + IC-33 in one go, and IC-34 + OC-37 in the second. Upon appearing and clearing online exams for each, you get the relevant certificate. Passing all four ISA courses will get you the “ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Expert” certification, considered by many as the "CISSP of the ICS/OT world." PS: You have to take each course before taking the corresponding exam. PPS: The next step in the ISA/IEC-62443 Standard Cyber Security Training is scheduled by ISA Pune Section from 26th August to 30th August, for IC-34 + IC-37 parts of the training, prerequisite being IC-32 completion. A few slots are available and those interested to join are requested to contact: | Training Chair Sandeep Kulkarni | Secretary Foster Vijay | Marketing Chair Ajit Chigteri | President Gurmeet S. Anand | Alefya Saria (Office Coordiator) at [email protected] #training #cybersecurity #cyberresilience #cyberattacks #OTsecurity #ransomware #isa62443

Announcement Often many Process Plant devices which have 4-20 mA inputs support field protocols like HART, ISA100, Wireless HART and Fieldbus. To optimise the plant efficiency both operational and energy, one needs to monitor their assets performance such as control valves, tank farms etc. and often plant instrument engineers need more data from the instrument so that he can perform the analysis better and take corrective actions on the same by improving control loop performance, accurate monitoring of flow totalizers, block leakages in the valves. ISA Pune Section are excited to announce our next TechTalk in which we will talk about applications using these field protocols, and how can we optimize our plant performance using new data available using HART or fieldbus, and make use of Cloud-based applications for optimization. The Speaker is Vinod Joshi, Managing Partner of Intellect Process Solutions LLP, who is a design and manufacturing expert in this field. The one-hour online TechTalk is on 27th July 2024 at 11 AM and is open to all participants free of cost, upon registration here: https://lnkd.in/d6YVP-xH Look forward to seeing you there! #automation #webinars #HART #communicationprotocols

Few seats left for IC-32 + IC-33 (or individually) for July course... hurry!

Have you completed IC-32 and want to go in for IC-33? Or IC-34 + IC-37? And become a certified Cybersecurity Expert? Read on ... The ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards define requirements and processes for implementing and maintaining electronically secure industrial #automation and #control systems #IACS These standards set ideal practices for OT security and provide a means of assessing the level of security performance. Read more about them at https://lnkd.in/dwk83_gg ISA Pune Section conducts training on the ISA/IEC 62443 standard in two 5-day sessions coming up in July (IC-32+IC-33) and August (IC-34+IC-37), successful completion of all 4 parts makes you a designated 'Cybersecurity Expert'.
