The 2025 edition introduces Chapter 11 — the first time cybersecurity has been formally added to NFPA 72. Fire alarm systems now fall under cybersecurity requirements for monitoring, remote access, and networked components.
Key takeaways:
🔸 Systems connected via the internet or IP networks must have documented cybersecurity measures.
🔸 Remote service access must be supervised and logged.
🔸 The owner must maintain a written cybersecurity plan.
Compliance now protects more than signals — it protects your reputation and operations.
