Abstract
The chapter is devoted to the consideration of the issues concerning the cyber security assurance of NPP instrumentation and control systems. A brief overview of the international regulatory framework in the field of cyber security for nuclear facilities is given. The different approaches to the categorization of NPP instrumentation and control systems by cyber security are expressed. The basic principles of cyber security assurance of NPP instrumentation and control systems are considered. The specific measures of cyber security assurance (i.e., graded according to the cyber security levels) on the stages of development, implementation, and operation of NPP instrumentation and control systems are presented.

Establishing Governance for Hybrid Cloud and the Internet of Things
Originally a military a strategy for ensuring redundancy when systems and procedures fail, this is typically applied to technology deployments. Focused on both security “at the edge” and the redundancy of each component in a system of systems context, this approach ensures that any one component will not reduce the reliability of the whole system.
