Mapping to ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 (informative) – OPC Unified Architecture

Annex A Mapping to ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 (informative)

This Annex provides a mapping of ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 to OPC UA. The first 5 columns (yellow colour) in each table are from the ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 specification and are included here for clarity. Some topics in ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 do not apply to OPC UA and are marked as “N”. ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 topics that do apply are marked as “Y”. ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 topics that are partially covered are marked as “P”, For each topic that does apply the table lists the relevant OPC UA Parts and the Profiles/ ConformanceUnits that covers the listed functionality. For each OPC UA Part that is listed (other than OPC 10000-7) the text in the “Keyword text or comment” column is the text that should be searched for. The section that are found related to the keyword will describe the OPC UA related functionality. For the row labelled OPC 10000-7 - ConformanceUnits, the keyword column contains the actual ConformanceUnits that apply. For the row labelled OPC 10000-7 - Profiles, the keyword column contains the actual Profiles/Facets that apply. For more detail on the ConformanceUnit or Profile, please use the on-line Profile Application available at OPC Profiles.

The mapping only covers the core OPC UA specifications (Parts 1-26). Companion specification and other base OPC UA specifications may also apply to ISA/IEC 62443-4-2 and could result in a more complete mapping.

Columns 2 through 4 in each of the tables could include a checkmark. The check marks when present indicate that the specific 62443 requirement applies to the listed security level (SL). This information is provided by the IEC 62443 specification and is reproduced here as a convenience.

The tables are broken into seven separate tables:

Identification and authentication control (Table A.1)

Use control (Table A.2)

System integrity (Table A.3)

Data confidentiality (Table A.4)

Restricted data flow (Table A.5)

Timely response to events (Table A.6)

Resource availability (Table A.7)

ISA/IEC 62443 extends beyond just OPC UA and also requires all software be compliant. This mapping only describes how OPC UA applies, it does not describe what else would be required.
