Description:
The move to using Ethernet, TCP/IP, and web technologies in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and process control networks has exposed these systems to the same cyberattacks that have wreaked havoc on corporate information systems. This course provides a detailed look at how the ISA/IEC 62443 standards framework can be used to protect critical control systems. It also explores the procedural and technical differences between the security for traditional IT environments and those solutions appropriate for SCADA or plant floor environments.
Learning Objectives:
- Discuss the principles behind creating an effective long term program security
- Interpret the ISA/IEC 62443 industrial security framework and apply them to your operation
- Define the basics of risk and vulnerability analysis methodologies
- Describe the principles of security policy development
- Explain the concepts of defense in depth and zone/conduit models of security
- Analyze the current trends in industrial security incidents and methods hackers use to attack a system
- Define the principles behind the key risk mitigation techniques, including anti-virus and patch management, firewalls, and virtual private networks
- Describe how secure software development strategies can make systems inherently more secure
- Explain how systems security is verified
