Privacy Protection in Distributed Industrial System
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: Although awareness is constantly rising, that industrial computer networks (in a very broad sense)can be exposed to serious cyber threats, many people still think that the same countermeasures, developed toprotect general-purpose computer networks, can be effectively adopted also in those situations where a physicalsystem is managed/controlled through some distributed Information and Communication Technology (ICT)infrastructure. Unfortunately, this is not the case, as several examples of successful attacks carried out in thelast decade, and more frequently in the very recent past, have dramatically shown. Experts in this area knowvery well that often the peculiarities of industrial networks prevent the adoption of classical approaches to theirsecurity and, in particular, of those popular solutions that are mainly based on a detect and patch philosophy.This paper is a contribution, from the security point of view, to the assessment of the current situation of a wideclass of industrial distributed computing systems. In particular, the analysis presented in this paper takes intoaccount the process of ensuring a satisfactory degree of security for a distributed industrial system, with respectto some key elements such as the system characteristics, the current state of the art of standardization and theadoption of suitable controls (countermeasures) that can help in lowering the security risks below a predefined,acceptable threshold
