This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two recent trends have raised concerns about the security and stability of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. The first is a move to define standard interfaces and communications protocols in support of cross-vendor compatibility and modularity. The second is a move to connect nodes in a SCADA system to open networks such as the Internet. Recent failures of critical infrastructure SCADA systems highlight these concerns. To ensure continued operations in times of crisis, SCADA systems, particularly those operating in our critical infrastructure, must be secured. Developing an abstract generic framework for defining and understanding SCADA systems is a necessary first step. A framework can provide the tools to understand the system's functions and capabilities, and how components in the system relate and interface with each other. This thesis examines and describes SCADA systems, their components, and commonly used communications protocols. It presents a matrix approach to describing and defining the features, functions and capabilities of a SCADA system. Two small SCADA systems, using industry standard components and simulating real world applications, were designed and constructed for this thesis to provide context for applying the matrix approach.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) networks play a vital role in Industrial Control Systems (ICSs). Industrial organizations perform operations remotely through SCADA systems to accelerate their processes. However, these network capabilities come at the cost of exposing the systems to cyber-attacks. Consequently, effective solutions are required to detect intrusions and secure SCADA systems as cyber-attacks on industrial infrastructure can have catastrophic consequences. Furthermore, SCADA field devices are equipped with micro-controllers for processing information and have limited computational power and resources. As a result, lightweight cryptography solutions are needed to strengthen the security of industrial plants against cyber threats. The Ph.D. work focuses on three major elements to secure the SCADA-based ICSs, namely, vulnerability assessment of field-site components, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) for plant floor and control center, and robust cryptographic-based secure solution for SCADA communications. The overall goal of this thesis is to cover the landscape of SCADA weaknesses by providing efficient, lightweight, and robust solutions to strengthen the security of industrial applications. The contributions of this thesis fulfill the objective of providing a full life-cycle strategy to innovate, design, and implement a security framework to protect SCADA networks against cyber-attacks in industrial control systems.

First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it''s the latest version (not always easy). Then you gotta print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people - and its outta paper - and the toner is low (take out the toner cartridge, shake it, then put it back). If it''s just 10 pages, no problem, but if it''s a 250-page book, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. An engineer that''s paid $75 an hour has to do this himself (who has assistant''s anymore?). We look over the document and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof the document to make sure it''s all there - including all changes.

Download or read book Identifying Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition SCADA Systems on a Network Via Remote Reconnaissance written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presidential Decision Directive (PDD) 63 calls for improving the security of Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) and other control systems which operate the critical infrastructure of the United States. In the past, these industrial computer systems relied on security through obscurity. Recent economic and technical shifts within the controls industry have increased their vulnerability to cyber attack. Concurrently, their value as a target has been recognized by terrorist organizations and competing nation states. Network reconnaissance is a basic tool that allows computer security managers to understand their complex systems. However, existing reconnaissance tools incorporate little or no understanding of control systems. This thesis provided a conceptual analysis for the creation of a SCADA network exploration/reconnaissance tool. Several reconnaissance techniques were research and reviewed in a laboratory environment to determine their utility for SCADA system discovery. Additionally, an application framework using common non-SCADA security tools was created to provide a proof of concept. Development of a viable tool for identifying SCADA systems remotely will help improve critical infrastructure security by improving situational awareness for network managers.
