<\/figure>\n\n\n\nFrequently asked questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\nIs Maintenance Specialist the final certificate in the program?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
It is Certificate 4, but the three advanced certificates do not have to be completed in numerical order. After Fundamentals, candidates may take Risk Assessment, Design, and Maintenance in any order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does earning Maintenance Specialist automatically make someone a Cybersecurity Expert?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
No. ISA awards the Cybersecurity Expert designation after a candidate earns all four Specialist certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is IC37 the Maintenance Specialist exam code?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
The ISA program page presents IC37 as the code for IACS Cybersecurity Operations and Maintenance, the required course. That page does not identify IC37 as a separate official examination code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do ISA\/IEC 62443 certificates require renewal?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
ISA states that renewal is not required for these certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Try 5 Free Demo Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\nQuestion 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Which activity is performed during the assess phase of the IACS cybersecurity lifecycle? Where is key guidance for IACS cybersecurity acceptance testing outlined? Which step is an element of log analysis during post-incident analysis and forensics? A checklist of the technology for post-incident analysis and forensics should identify: Which collection of assets belongs in an IACS asset inventory?
A. Risk analysis of the IACS
B. Periodic security audits
C. Monitoring of threats
D. Engineering of countermeasures
Answer:<\/strong> A
Explanation:<\/strong> The assess phase examines the system and its risks, so risk analysis belongs in this phase. Periodic audits and threat monitoring are continuing operational activities, while engineering countermeasures belongs to design and implementation work.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. ISA\/IEC 62443-2-4
B. ISO 9001
C. NIST 800-53
D. PCI Version 3.1 2015
Answer:<\/strong> A
Explanation:<\/strong> ISA\/IEC 62443-2-4 addresses security program requirements for IACS service providers and is the relevant standard in this question’s acceptance-testing context. The other options are broader quality, security control, or payment-card references rather than the cited IACS service-provider standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. Identify IACS systems architecture and components.
B. Plan, implement, and evaluate changes to the IACS.
C. Determine applicability of software patches to the IACS.
D. Compare running IACS configuration to a last known good configuration.
Answer:<\/strong> D
Explanation:<\/strong> Comparing the current configuration with a trusted baseline can reveal changes made before or during an incident. The other choices relate to architecture documentation, change management, or patch evaluation rather than the specific log and forensic comparison requested.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. Data historian trends, alarms, and events.
B. Engineering personnel with authorized access.
C. Any protection components in use (e.g., antivirus, allowlisting\/whitelisting).
D. Any abnormal conditions.
Answer:<\/strong> A
Explanation:<\/strong> Data historian trends, alarms, and event records provide time-based operational evidence that can help reconstruct what happened. Personnel, protection components, and abnormal conditions may also matter during an investigation, but the question asks for the technology and data source used in post-incident analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. All IACS hardware, IACS software, and user documentation
B. All physical IACS hardware, IACS software, and employee directories
C. All physical IACS hardware, virtual IACS hardware, and IACS software assets
D. All physical IACS hardware, virtual IACS hardware, and network diagrams
Answer:<\/strong> C
Explanation:<\/strong> An IACS asset inventory should account for physical hardware, virtual hardware, and software assets. User documentation, employee directories, and network diagrams can support security management, but they do not replace one of those core asset categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
