Specialized Cybersecurity & Cognitive Security
Smart Grid and ICS/SCADA Security
Smart grids and industrial control systems run physical processes, so a cyber incident can become a safety or outage event. These environments use legacy protocols, long-lived devices, and availability-first priorities that make standard IT security awkward. Defense focuses on visibility, segmentation, and safe maintenance windows, with changes tested against operational impact before deployment.
النقاط الرئيسية
- Build an accurate asset inventory of controllers, HMIs, and network paths.
- Segment IT from OT and restrict traffic to required protocols and ports.
- Monitor industrial protocols passively to avoid disrupting sensitive devices.
- Apply patches and configuration changes only in planned maintenance windows.
- Use out-of-band management and avoid exposing control systems to the internet.
- Prepare incident response that includes physical safety and operator coordination.
- Test backups and recovery for control systems, not just business IT.
- Train operators to recognize cyber events that look like equipment faults.
أسئلة شائعة
Can I patch OT systems like IT?
No. Patching must be scheduled and tested for operational impact first.
Is air-gapping enough?
No. Removable media and vendor access often bridge the gap.
What is the biggest risk?
Loss of visibility and uncontrolled remote access to control networks.
Who owns ICS security?
A shared responsibility between operations, engineering, and security teams.
