Procedure for substantiated development of measures to design secure software for automated process control systems

The findings of a study concerned with devising a procedure for substantiated development of a set of measures to design secure software used in automated process control systems at critical facilities are presented. Using the results of systematization and consolidation of standards and recommendations in the area of designing secure software, a set of requirements was formulated for the secure software designing process, which are recommended for implementing in the software lifecycle (a basic set of requirements for designing secure software). An original procedure was suggested for substantiated development of a set of measures to design secure software of automated process control systems, using the basic set of requirements for designing secure software.
