Trustworthiness in Industrial System Design
to the protection of the community and nature.
� With the availability of internet connectivity, industrial systems were able to access websites and exchange information via email. This quickly raised the risk of hacker attacks and, subsequently, the requirement for active IT security beyond the physical( or traditional) security, such as fencing around a plant or surveillance by security guards, which were the mainstay of the oldest industrial systems.
� With storage of more and more personal data in industrial systems, privacy has become a key concern and privacy regulations have become an important factor in the industrial environment, mainly focused on IT and electronic data. There are industrial system designers who think that privacy does not affect most industrial systems beyond specific exceptions like hospitals. However, the new General Data Protection Directive( GDPR) 1 regulation of the European Community, for example, clearly specifies that privacy also addresses employees, and because nearly all industrial systems require employees to operate equipment, privacy is an integral part of industrial design. progression was similar for automobiles and airplanes: Reliable automobiles were first available around 1910, but safety features were not incorporated until 1930 2; reliable commercial airplanes were available in 1930 but the demand for and implementation of safety features only began in the 1950s.
The time coordinates in Figure 1 are not accurate for all systems. But interestingly enough, the relative introduction
