OPC UA provides certification of OPC UA Applications. The lab testing and certification includes testing by injecting error and junk commands which might discover common faults. OPC Foundation stacks are also fuzz tested to ensure they are resilient to errors. Although a certified OPC UA Application does not guarantee fault free operation, the certified OPC UA Application is more likely to be resilient to application crashes caused by denial of service attacks.
