Drawing from current experiences in substations and battery energy storage systems (BESS), they walk through how assessments are initiated, structured, and executed in practice. The discussion also highlights the gap between theory and reality, especially when assessments are performed late in project lifecycles due to regulatory or project constraints. Jaron explains the fundamentals of the IEC 62443-3-2 risk assessment process, including system scoping, risk identification, and zone and conduit modeling, while also addressing common challenges such as missing documentation and limited stakeholder availability. Simon and Jaron also emphasize how cybersecurity is an ongoing process and that effective assessments provide actionable insights, prioritized risks, and practical mitigation strategies tailored to each project.
