Correct Answer:

Modbus over Ethernet, also known as Modbus/TCP, is a protocol that encapsulates the Modbus/RTU data string inside the data section of the TCP frame. It then sets up a client/server exchange between nodes, using TCP/IP addressing to establish connections1. This makes it easy to manage in a firewall, because the firewall can filter the traffic based on the source and destination IP addresses and the TCP port number. The default TCP port for Modbus/TCP is 502, but it can be changed if needed. Modbus/TCP does not use any other ports or protocols, so the firewall rules can be simple and specific. References:

Correct Answer: C

PROFINET is the implementation of PROFIBUS over Ethernet for non- safety-related communications. It is a standard for industrial Ethernet that enables real-time data exchange between automation devices, controllers, and higher-level systems. PROFINET uses standard Ethernet hardware and software, but adds a thin software layer that allows deterministic and fast communication. PROFINET supports different communication profiles for different applications, such as motion control, process automation, and functional safety. PROFINET is compatible with PROFIBUS, and allows seamless integration of existing PROFIBUS devices and networks123 References: 1: What is PROFINET? - PI North America

Correct Answer: A

Separation of duties is a security principle that aims to prevent fraud, errors, conflicts of interest, or misuse of resources by dividing critical tasks or functions among different people or teams. It is one of the foundational requirements (FRs) of the ISA/IEC 62443 standards for securing industrial automation and control systems (IACSs). According to the ISA/IEC 62443-2-1 standard, separation of duties includes the following system requirements (SRs): SR 2.1: Security management policy SR 2.2: Personnel security SR 2.3: System development and maintenance SR 2.4: Incident response and recovery SR 2.5: Compliance and review Among these SRs, the one that is most related to the example of system development and maintenance is SR 2.3. SR 2.3 requires that the IACS shall provide the capability to ensure that the development and maintenance of the system and its components are performed in a secure manner. This means that the IACS should have a mechanism to control the access and authorization of developers, testers, integrators, and maintainers who work on the system and its components. It also means that the IACS should have a mechanism to verify and validate the quality and security of the system and its components before, during, and after the development and maintenance processes. Therefore, an example of separation of duties as a part of system development and maintenance is that changes are approved by one party and implemented by another. This ensures that the changes are authorized, documented, and reviewed by someone who is not involved in the implementation. This reduces the risk of introducing errors, vulnerabilities, or malicious code into the system and its components.
