Download or read book Techno Security s Guide to Securing SCADA written by Greg Miles and published by Syngress. This book was released on 2008-08-23 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the world, SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems and other real-time process control networks run mission-critical infrastructure--everything from the power grid to water treatment, chemical manufacturing to transportation. These networks are at increasing risk due to the move from proprietary systems to more standard platforms and protocols and the interconnection to other networks. Because there has been limited attention paid to security, these systems are seen as largely unsecured and very vulnerable to attack. This book addresses currently undocumented security issues affecting SCADA systems and overall critical infrastructure protection. The respective co-authors are among the leading experts in the world capable of addressing these related-but-independent concerns of SCADA security. Headline-making threats and countermeasures like malware, sidejacking, biometric applications, emergency communications, security awareness llanning, personnel & workplace preparedness and bomb threat planning will be addressed in detail in this one of a kind book-of-books dealing with the threats to critical infrastructure protection. They collectivly have over a century of expertise in their respective fields of infrastructure protection. Included among the contributing authors are Paul Henry, VP of Technology Evangelism, Secure Computing, Chet Hosmer, CEO and Chief Scientist at Wetstone Technologies, Phil Drake, Telecommunications Director, The Charlotte Observer, Patrice Bourgeois, Tenable Network Security, Sean Lowther, President, Stealth Awareness and Jim Windle, Bomb Squad Commander, CMPD. - Internationally known experts provide a detailed discussion of the complexities of SCADA security and its impact on critical infrastructure - Highly technical chapters on the latest vulnerabilities to SCADA and critical infrastructure and countermeasures - Bonus chapters on security awareness training, bomb threat planning, emergency communications, employee safety and much more - Companion Website featuring video interviews with subject matter experts offer a "sit-down" with the leaders in the field

Download or read book SCADA Security What s broken and how to fix it written by Andrew Ginter and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-03 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern attacks routinely breach SCADA networks that are defended to IT standards. This is unacceptable. Defense in depth has failed us. In ""SCADA Security"" Ginter describes this failure and describes an alternative. Strong SCADA security is possible, practical, and cheaper than failed, IT-centric, defense-in-depth. While nothing can be completely secure, we decide how high to set the bar for our attackers. For important SCADA systems, effective attacks should always be ruinously expensive and difficult. We can and should defend our SCADA systems so thoroughly that even our most resourceful enemies tear their hair out and curse the names of our SCADA systems' designers.
