The Cognisec IEC 62443 Engine was not built by software developers who read the IEC 62443 standard. It was built by cybersecurity professionals who have spent 15+ years implementing compliance in real industrial environments — OT networks, SCADA systems, IEC 62443, and enterprise security architecture. We know what compliance actually looks like in practice.
This is not a startup with an idea. This is a team that has lived and breathed cybersecurity compliance for over a decade across multiple industries and continents.
Years combined experience in OT and enterprise cybersecurity compliance
Foundational Requirements — all mapped, interpreted, and embedded by compliance experts
Dedicated role panels designed with strict separation of duties matching IEC 62443 governance
Generic GRC tools used as base. Built from scratch, purpose-built for IEC 62443 alone.
Every feature in the IEC 62443 Engine was designed by professionals who have performed real compliance assessments, written real technical documentation, and sat in real regulatory audits.
Deep expertise in Operational Technology security — SCADA systems, industrial control networks, PLCs, and safety-critical systems. We know what IEC 62443 means for manufacturing environments because we have worked in them.
Extensive experience implementing ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and regulatory compliance frameworks across large enterprises. We have written the documentation that regulators actually accept.
In-depth knowledge of EU cybersecurity regulations — NIS2, IEC 62443, GDPR, and product liability law. We interpret the regulation so you don't have to hire an army of lawyers.
There are generic compliance platforms. And then there is the Cognisec IEC 62443 Engine. The difference is not cosmetic — it is fundamental.
Every feature, every workflow, every field was designed specifically for the IEC 62443 Standard. Nothing generic. Nothing irrelevant.
No configuration. No mapping. No interpretation. The 7 Foundational Requirements are already built in and ready to use on day one.
Data never leaves Europe. GDPR compliance is built in from the ground up, not added as an afterthought.
Manage unlimited suppliers, their BOM devices, connections, risk assessments, and compliance submissions — all in one place.
No implementation project. No consulting fees. No 6-month onboarding. You are live in under 10 minutes.
Generic frameworks need months of customisation, consulting hours, and deep configuration before they work for IEC 62443.
You need compliance experts to manually map IEC 62443 requirements to the tool. That takes time, money, and expertise you may not have.
Most tools are designed for one team. Managing Asset Owners, Suppliers, and Auditors requires workarounds or separate tools.
Many GRC platforms host data in the USA, creating GDPR compliance issues for EU companies handling sensitive supply chain data.
Most tools focus on internal compliance. Managing your entire supplier ecosystem requires bolt-on modules or additional tools.
Typical GRC implementation takes 3-6 months. With 2027 approaching, you cannot afford a 6-month setup project.
Built to the same security standards we help our clients achieve. We practice what we preach.
Every component of the IEC 62443 Engine is built against OWASP Top 10 security standards. Penetration tested, vulnerability scanned, and continuously monitored.
Each client gets their own isolated database. Your data is completely separated from every other client. No shared database risk. Full data sovereignty.
Role-based access control at every level. Session management, audit logging, and multi-factor authentication support built into every panel.
Hosted exclusively on European Union servers. All data processed and stored within EU jurisdiction. Full GDPR Article 44-49 compliance.
Every action in the system is logged with timestamp, user, and action. The audit trail cannot be modified or deleted. Admissible in regulatory proceedings.
Each client gets their own subdomain — e.g. ibm.iec.cognisecsecurity.com. Isolated environment, custom access, full data separation.
The Cognisec IEC 62443 Engine is built in alignment with industry-leading security frameworks.
