Intrusion detection and prevention systems have the capability to detect and catch threats missed by the firewalls. Susceptibility management systems are used to identify, remediate and mitigate vulnerabilities in computer networks but ...

Abstract.

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems (SCADA) are a subset of Industrial Control Systems (ICS), and they are used to automate the control and monitoring of processes and sets of processes. Such processes include industrial production lines, power grids, rail switching and other critical infrastructure. Traditionally, these systems were isolated and thus secure from cyber-attacks. However, modernization has led to increased complexity, interconnectivity, and digitization. In this regard, today's SCADA systems need to communicate and transfer data from one site to another via communication networks that are at times public e.g. The internet. This development has created security vulnerabilities for ...
