“…SCADA is a human-machine interface, which provides real-time data on the nuclear power plant’s functioning and can be acquired through a centralised system. It allows access to sensitive sections of the plant, such as the centrifuges, generators and turbines (Wijaksono et al, 2016, p. 1). SCADA is the primary target of any cyber weapon, through which other parts and functions of the nuclear power plant can be disturbed.…”

State and non-state actors are increasingly using cyberspace as a platform to execute hybrid warfare. As multiple incidents in India have shown critical infrastructures, particularly nuclear infrastructures, have been lucrative targets of cyber-attacks. Considering India’s well-progressing civilian and military nuclear infrastructures, it is apposite to raise the question of how safe these nuclear infrastructures are from cyber threats. This article suggests that India’s nuclear infrastructures will remain exposed to cyber-attacks due to their strategic significance for India’s national security. These threats will continue to exploit the zero-day vulnerabilities in the cyber-physical systems of these infrastructures. Further, the article looks into the threat sources, consequences and mitigation strategies against cyber-attacks on nuclear infrastructures. In an attempt to explore mitigation strategies, the article discusses certain cyber-attack scenarios and the consequences on India’s nuclear infrastructures. The article concludes that while certain technological cyber-defence mechanisms are in place, there is a need for legislative and diplomatic measures for developing a comprehensive set of measures to deter cyber threats to India’s nuclear infrastructures.

“…The alternative to solve this problem can be done with computer-based simulation. The analysis and design of this control process requires software such as Matlab [10], Labview [11], and Wonderware in Touch [12] etc., to purchase licenses unreachable by the laboratory budget. The use of physical plants for industrial automation learning is even more difficult to realize, because the price is very expensive.…”

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate a new design of low-cost and portab le lab oratory kit that is prospective for supporting teaching and learning on the automation process. The kit consists of the water tank filling system (sizes of 50 mL; as a model for describ ing reallistic tank in the plant) equipped with a programmab le logic controller (PLC) integrated with SCADA system, human machine interface (HMI) monitor, reservoir, temperature, water level sensors, mixer, and heater. To b e adaptab le in any types of classroom, the kit was placed on the portab le tab le (length x width x height of 100 x 50 x 150 cm). To approach the industrial tank system in industry, the tank was designed to b e mixed and connected to other tank, and the temperature and water volumetric (water level) was controllab le. To examine the impact of the designed kit on the improvement of teaching and learning process , the prob lem b ased learning (PBL) approach was also conducted in class. The economic analysis result showed that the present kit is inexpensive and portab le, compared to other commercially availab le kits/devices. The PBL results showed that the kit is simple and to give b etter illustrations for students to comprehend the process control system in the realistic application in industry. Further developments of this kit is potentially implemented as an experimental tool for undergraduate students.

Abstract.A dispatcher training simulator (DTS) is a real-time Human Machine Interface (HMI)-based control tool that is able to visualize industrial control system processes. The present study was aimed at developing a simulator tool for boilers in a thermal power station. The DTS prototype was designed using technical data of thermal power station boilers in Indonesia. It was then designed and implemented in Wonderware Intouch 10. The resulting simulator came with component drawing, animation, control display, alarm system, real-time trend, historical trend. This application used 26 tagnames and was equipped with a security system. The test showed that the principles of real-time control worked well. It is expected that this research could significantly contribute to the development of thermal power station, particularly in terms of its application as a training simulator for beginning dispatchers.
