Industrial Control Systems: The Biggest Cyber Threat

The Process Matters: Cyber Security in Industrial Control Systems The Process Matters: Cyber Security in Industrial Control Systems

An industrial control system (ICS) is a computer system that controls industrial processes such as power plants, water and gas distribution, food production, etc. Since cyber-attacks on an ICS may have devastating consequences on human lives and safety in general, the security of ICS is important. In this context, the most valuable asset is the process that is under the control of the ICS. As a...

Industrial Control System Cyber Attacks

This paper presents a set of attacks against SCADA control systems. The attacks are grouped into 4 classes; reconnaissance, response and measurement injection, command injection and denial of service. The 4 classes are defined and each attack is described in detail. The response and measurement injection and command injection classes are subdivided into sub-classes based on attack complexity. E...

Cyber Physical Security for Industrial Control Systems and IoT

Cyber-attacks and cybersecurity used to be the issues for those who use Internet and computers. The issues, however, are expanding to anyone who does not even use them directly. The society is gradually and heavily depending on networks and computers. They are not closed within a cyberspace anymore and having interaction with our real world with sensors and actuators. Such systems are known as ...
