Abstract: Disagreement exists among professionals about remediation of control system vulnerability due to discrepancies in engineering practice, paradigms, processes, and culture. Quantification of agreement among professionals in control system Operational Technology (OT) versus business enterprise Information Technology (IT) is needed to increase visibility into areas where divergence arises. This presentation introduces a model and methodology for measuring multi-concern assurance through statistical uncertainty analysis of Likert semantic differential scales.
