“…The difficulties for designing appropriate key management systems for these environments are discussed in [72]. A number of studies including [73][74][75][76], proposed key management systems for industrial environments but these do not meet the diverse deployment challenges and performance requirements of plant and factory settings. In these, the key management system needs to be scalable; must work well with limited computational power; must undertake key exchange while not interfering with the the real-time availability of the process; must provide interoperability among systems and devices; and must provide automated key revocation when under attack.…”

A B S T R A C TA revolution in manufacturing systems is underway: substantial recent investment has been directed towards the development of smart manufacturing systems that are able to respond in real time to changes in customer demands, as well as the conditions in the supply chain and in the factory itself. Smart manufacturing is a key component of the broader thrust towards Industry 4.0, and relies on the creation of a bridge between digital and physical environments through Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, coupled with enhancements to those digital environments through greater use of cloud systems, data analytics and machine learning. Whilst these individual technologies have been in development for some time, their integration with industrial systems leads to new challenges as well as potential benefits. In this paper, we explore the challenges faced by those wishing to secure smart manufacturing systems. Lessons from history suggest that where an attempt has been made to retrofit security on systems for which the primary driver was the development of functionality, there are inevitable and costly breaches. Indeed, today's manufacturing systems have started to experience this over the past few years; however, the integration of complex smart manufacturing technologies massively increases the scope for attack from adversaries aiming at industrial espionage and sabotage. The potential outcome of these attacks ranges from economic damage and lost production, through injury and loss of life, to catastrophic nation-wide effects. In this paper, we discuss the security of existing industrial and manufacturing systems, existing vulnerabilities, potential future cyber-attacks, the weaknesses of existing measures, the levels of awareness and preparedness for future security challenges, and why security must play a key role underpinning the development of future smart manufacturing systems.

“…With the integration of the Smart Grid with existing SCADA systems, which have been employed since the '60s, the resulting system should have a unified key management scheme for the secure communication of all components among them. There are quite a few key management schemes designed especially for SCADA: [4,8,6,17,7,12]; however, they are not adequate because they do not take into account the rest of the Smart Grid's components. An overview of each of these proposals is presented in [23].…”

Abstract. As Smart Grid deployments emerge around the world, their protection against cyberattacks becomes more crucial. Before protective measures are put into place, one of the main factors to be considered is key management. Smart Grid poses special requirements compared to traditional networks; however, the review of previous work reveals that existing schemes are not complete. Here we propose a scalable and distributed key management scheme for the Smart Grid based on the Web-of-Trust concept. Our proposal is build on top of a Distributed Hash Table for efficient lookups of trust relationships. The target of this scheme is to create a key management system for the Smart Grid without the need of an always available Trusted Third Party. The underlying Distributed Hash Table can be further utilised as an infrastructure to build other Smart Grid services on top of it, like secure and/or anonymous aggregation, billing, etc.

“…Symmetric method has been uses to check the security performance and also specify the policies for key distribution between nodes, Formal mathematical methods for SCADA security and the uses of symmetric algorithms are future topic of current research (Kang and Kim, 2007b). Multicasting approach for key distribution and management is new approach within SCADA systems, which significantly reduces the cost and provides better performance from existing solutions (Choi et al, 2010).…”

The SCADA system connectivity with several open networks using internet facility brought SCADA platform more vulnerable from attacks/threads. Therefore, the detail security review has been conducted, to find the potential security issues which are residing and warming the SCADA communication and also existing potential security solutions that are used to protect the SCADA communication. However, Security deployments are the future tread of this study. This security review is divided into four main sections: (1) Security Analysis for SCADA System, (2) SCADA Security using Cryptography Solution, (3) Key Management and Distribution Protocols for SCADA System and (4) SCADA Communication using Security Patterns. In this study; the SCADA security review has been conducted and generic security solution using cryptography will implement in future.
