From page 9...
... Experience has shown that • Sensors are not as accurate as assumed; • Not all sensor failure modes are understood; • Cybersecurity standards and government organizations have largely ignored process sensor cybersecurity and integrity; and • Instrument engineers and instrument technicians are not part of cybersecurity programs, have minimal training in cybersecurity, and continue to design cyberinsecure sensors and sensor systems. There have been efforts to raise awareness of this issue.
