The Security Survey and Anaylsis on Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Communication

Abstract

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.

Review of cybersecurity issues in industrial critical infrastructure: manufacturing in perspective

“…They close up with potential security mechanisms that could be applicable to CPS for attacks prevention, detection, recovery, resilience, and deterrence. Similar works [26][27][28] presented a summarised analysis of security threats and vulnerabilities in CPS with recommendations [8]. Authors in [29] reviewed contemporary researches in ICS security, highlighting interesting efforts from industrial researchers.…”

Design and Development of Layered Security: Future Enhancements and Directions in Transmission

“…Established global organizations including the U.S. National Security Agency, U.S. Homeland Security Department, Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc., the American Gas Association, and the Gas Technology Institute, have been vulnerable to security threats due to the Internet’s open connectivity [ 28 , 29 ]. These organizations and other researchers have developed several security solutions and protocols to guard against cyber-security issues, and the cryptography-based security mechanisms have been selected as the “best” security approaches for secure SCADA communications [ 26 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ].…”
