SELLERSVILLE, Pa. — exida, a global industrial automation cybersecurity certification company, announced that Johnson Controls, a global provider of smart, healthy, and sustainable buildings, has earned its third ISASecure Component Security Assurance Certification (CSA) for the YORK YMC² Centrifugal Chiller.

The YORK YMC² Chiller is equipped to offer wide-set operational range while minimizing downtime. Designed with sustainability in mind, the YORK YMC² chiller offers the market a certified chiller with the versatility to perform under extreme, demanding conditions.
“With their third chiller cybersecurity certification from exida, Johnson Controls continues to show focused leadership in the smart building equipment industry,” said Mike Medoff, director of exida certification. “This certification shows compliance with best cybersecurity practices in the industry and is a big step to make our buildings safer and more secure.”

With an internationally recognized ISASecure certification from exida, Johnson Controls provides customers with the assurance that their product is safely and securely performing in conditions that would normally shut down other chillers.
