Cybersecurity for Chemical Industry

Abstract

Cybersecurity risk pervades all sectors of the US economy. It challenges the reliability, resiliency, and safety of our infrastructures. The chemical industry, particularly the petro-chemical industry, is a critical infrastructure that is vulnerable to cyber attacks. By its nature, the chemical industry deals with products that are sometimes highly hazardous for people and the environment. Cyber attacks on chemical industry represent a threat beyond the boundaries of the factory involved. This paper presents a brief introduction to how cybersecurity affects the chemical industry.
