Compliance Analysis ​

The Compliance page (menu Compliance Analysis) measures, zone by zone, how far security requirements (SR — System Requirements from IEC 62443-3-3, broken down into CR — Component Requirements from IEC 62443-4-2) are covered by the countermeasures actually evaluated in ZCR5, and drives the associated corrective actions.

The 7 Foundational Requirements (FR) ​

The full set of requirements is organised around the standard's 7 Foundational Requirements, plus an organisational category:

FRTitle
FR1Identification and Authentication Control (IAC)
FR2Use Control (UC)
FR3System Integrity (SI)
FR4Data Confidentiality (DC)
FR5Restricted Data Flow (RDF)
FR6Timely Response to Events (TRE)
FR7Resource Availability (RA)

Two tabs, two different questions ​

TabQuestion
CoverageDo the countermeasures activated in ZCR 5 cover the requirements applicable to the zone's SL-T?
SL-AWhat security level is actually achieved, per FR?

The SL-A tab rates each SR/RE requirement from the IEC 62443-3-3 catalogue and derives the level achieved: an FR reaches level N if all SR at level ≤ N are compliant or compensated. The result is capped at the SL-T and compared to both the SL-T and the SL-C.

Reading the two gaps

SL-T vs SL-C shows what needs to be bought or replaced — see SL-C Components. SL-T vs SL-A shows what remains to be implemented.

This page changes role as the study progresses ​

Before the detailed analysis, compliance is a baseline assessment: it measures the gap between the protections already in place and the targeted level. This is the observation that feeds the light CRS.

After ZCR 5, it becomes a verification: do the selected countermeasures actually meet the SL-T requirements of each zone? To be iterated until the residual risk is acceptable.

Zone selection and indicators ​

A navigation bar offers one button per zone, with the target SL and the % coverage of the zone. A global "rollup" shows the average coverage rate and the counters by component status.

For the selected zone: target SL, number of relevant SRs (those whose required SL ≤ the zone's SL-T), number covered / partial / not covered, % coverage (display thresholds: ≥80% green, ≥50% orange, otherwise red).

Combinable filters: by FR (FR1-FR7 + ORG) and by status (Covered / Partial / Not covered).

Rows are grouped by FR, with a group header showing the FR's % coverage.

✦ Analyse gaps button

The AI button automatically identifies the uncovered or partial SRs of the selected zone and suggests a status, a corrective action and a note — to be validated before import into the table.

Workshop page, not a report

This page is a working tool (entry/consultation), with no dedicated export. The compliance summary per zone and the SL-A are included in the CRS Report, and corrective actions feed the action plan.
