The dynamic evolutions of Cyber Physical Systems in the Industry 4.0 contextare considered, their inherent complexity and pertinent interfaces are examinedcontemplating the influence of the current security environments and their futuretrends. The increased number of spheres of influence affecting the Cyber Security ofCyber Physical Systems generate an escalation of the required interpretations forenabling a secure system, consequently organizations have encountered hindrancetowards the required security targets.It is intended with the present work to comprehend the convolutions surroundingthe organizations interpretation of securing a Cyber Physical System, subjected onselected topics, aiming to elucidate influencing factors and their relationships.The research conducts an introductory investigation of the perceptions ofinfluencing factors for secured Cyber Physical Systems, namely the digitalizationtrend, reference architectures and their heterogeneity in Industry 4.0, applicationdomain nuances, Cyber Security trends and its latest technological developments.Consequently, it surveys the Cyber Physical Systems and Cyber Security associationsreviewing the present industrial landscape through references to organizations culturaland strategical facets and typical employed governance. Due to the unique featuresof a Cyber Physical System, the latter is further probed accounting for deploymentreview during the lifecycle. The objective is to assess omissions which influence theapplication of Cyber Security in Cyber Physical Systems, with particular incidence inthe organizations, governance and, technology contexts, where improvements andrecommendations in the organizations security culture and, governance interpretationand application of the IEC 62443 are derived and leaving further observations whichcan support the development of future researches.
