A governance and architecture model for implementing mission-critical environments in a structured, compliant and future-proof way - used by 3Flames as the foundation of our services.
CSA is a governance model that brings together cybersecurity, operational requirements and regulatory compliance into one practical framework for mission-critical environments.
It defines the governance, architecture and controls needed to implement environments correctly - turning complex and scattered requirements into clear architecture decisions and practical controls.
From requirements to implementation - CSA helps organizations turn scattered demands into a clear architecture, governance controls and practical implementation decisions.
Instead of interpreting regulations independently, CSA provides a structured model that maps requirements to technical and operational controls.
The model has continuously evolved to stay ahead of tightening regulatory requirements in the energy sector.
CSA Model Compliance Security Architecture (CSA) is the 3Flames model for turning external requirements and operational needs into practical security and compliance controls for mission-critical environments. The model shows how secure and compliant access is enabled for the parties that need to interact with critical environments, while ensuring that the underlying OT and energy systems remain protected, resilient and governable.
FlameGuard is the operational service built on top of CSA. While CSA defines the governance model and control architecture, FlameGuard delivers the actual service capabilities - connectivity, access management, monitoring and compliance controls - in mission-critical energy environments.
CSA = governance & architecture model · FlameGuard = operational service built on CSA
