Industrial Network Security: Securing Critical Infrastructure Networks for Smart Grid, Scada, and Other Industrial Control Systems

As the sophistication of cyber-attacks increases, understanding how to defend critical infrastructure systems-energy production, water, gas, and other vital systems-becomes more important, and heavily mandated. Industrial Network Security, Third Edition arms you with the knowledge you need to understand the vulnerabilities of these distributed supervisory and control systems. Author Eric Knapp examines the unique protocols and applications that are the foundation of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and provides clear guidelines for their protection. This comprehensive reference gives you thorough understanding of the challenges facing critical infrastructures, new guidelines and security measures for infrastructure protection, knowledge of new and evolving security tools, and pointers on SCADA protocols and security implementation.
