New features in VDA ISA Version 6
VDA ISA Version 6 introduces new labels for confidentiality and availability and expands the security assessments to include OT systems. In addition, the new edition includes a larger number of control questions on data protection, which enables a more thorough review and strengthening of data protection practices.

References to other security standards and the more precise description of requirements facilitate international application and the consistent implementation of security measures. The basic language English supports global comprehensibility and uniformity.
Advantages of VDA ISA Version 6 for verinice users
With the VDA ISA perspective in verinice, companies can efficiently carry out information security assessments. The new VDA ISA 6 catalog can be used in verinice version 1.27 and enables users to implement the new and stricter requirements directly in the tool.

Starting with verinice 1.28, implementation will be even easier: the catalog will then be integrated directly into verinice again, which will further simplify compliance processes.
