Understanding and Applying Cyber Security for Manufacturing
and Computer Control Systems
Course Description
Industry has invested considerable effort in managing
the risks of terrorism and other deliberate criminal acts against
facilities since the events of September 11, 2001. However, these efforts
have focused primarily on physical security and have not dealt with
attacks on facilities through their computer systems. While few
deliberately focused attacks on manufacturing systems have been reported,
random attacks of worms, trojans, viruses, etc. have occurred and
adversely impacted computer systems including those operating
manufacturing facilities.
While cyber security is an established discipline for
computer systems used for business management, its focus is the protection
of valuable information stored on those systems from adversaries who want
to obtain, corrupt, damage, destroy or prohibit access to it. Cyber
security for manufacturing and control systems must also include
protection against cyber or physical attack on computer systems and their
support systems by adversaries who wish to disable or manipulate them to
cause harm. Examples of manipulation include opening/closing valves,
starting/stopping equipment, and overriding alarm and trip settings.
Traditional IT cyber security countermeasures are not adequate to protect
against attacks on control systems. Furthermore, such countermeasures may
even compromise the safety or operability of manufacturing processes.
Historically, computer control systems have been kept
separate from business and enterprise computer systems but increasingly
they are being connected through networks, driven by the need to
communicate process information to business groups and the opportunity to
intervene in manufacturing processes through an intranet or the Internet.
Control systems are exposed to penetration when they are connected to
other networks or when there are provisions for remote access. Existing
control systems were not designed with public access in mind, often have
poor security, and are vulnerable to attack. Furthermore, much of the
technical information needed to penetrate these systems is readily
available.
Note: For more detail on the need to address industrial
cyber security, see "The
Business Case for Cyber Security (PDF file)"
This course provides attendees with an understanding of
cyber security and knowledge and tools that can be used to manage the risk
of cyber attacks. It includes an overview of the basics of computer
networks and control systems for those attendees who may not be familiar
with them. Sources and types of attack, vulnerabilities, attack techniques
and countermeasures are described. The course concludes with a discussion
of how to implement a program to manage cyber security within an
organization.
