Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Deployment Challenges

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are used for controlling, operating and monitoring industrial processes. That current ICS infrastructures and elements are not amply secured against cyber threats in context of security. Woefully, due to the specific nature of these systems, the application of common security counter-measures is often not effective. We suggest building tools and mechanisms to improve the security and awareness in ICS. We discuss challenges and opportunities identified during a comprehensive analysis of ICS data system resources. Industrial processes are more exposed to cybersecurity risks through a range of vulnerabilities in software and hardware technologies as well as weaknesses inherited from the legacy design of ICS networks.
