A Survey on SCADA / Distributed Control System Current Security Development and Studies

Abstract

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems and other distributed control systems, are widely used in critical infrastructure and industrial plants. In recent times, many distinguished newspapers, magazines and reports publicized successful intrusions and attacks on SCADA based systems to bring security issues of critical infrastructure to the agenda. Recent various studies and assessments on control systems incidents indicate that these systems will increasingly become a greater target for cyber attacks, denial of service and physical disruption. This paper will discuss a variety of SCADA security issue publicized in worthy recent reports. It will also recommend some emerge measures and further studies fields in order to provide more secure control system network design.
