Chapter 1: This chapter will provide an introduction to Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Distributed Control Systems (DCS), and Process Control Systems (PCS). What they are and how they are used. Then we will look at cybersecurity vulnerabilities in general and those that are of a higher concern for SCADA and PCS systems.
Section 1: What is SCADA?
Overview
History and Installed Base
How SCADA Systems Work
A More In-Depth Look at a SCADA System
Field Devices Measure the Process for Flow Rate, Pressure, Temperature, Level, Density, Etc.
Field Control Uses Two Types of Controllers
Examples of HMI Screens and Displays Used Within SCADA Systems
Section 2: Overview of Cyber Vulnerabilities
In this section the key objectives are:
Challenges of Securing Information
Understanding and Defining Information Security
Cyber Threat Source to Control/SCADA Systems Descriptions
GAO Threat Table
Cyber-Attacks and Defenses
Vulnerability Scanning vs. Penetration Testing
Section 3: Understanding Control System Cyber Vulnerabilities
Gaining Control of the SCADA System
Three Categories of SCADA Systems
Modern/Common
Figure 1.13 illustrates some of the technologies used in a control systems environment most likely to be of the Modern/Common type.
This category of technologies inside the control systems domain will be those that would be most susceptible to modern cyber threats and vulnerabilities, at the same time being mature enough to allow some contemporary forensic methods to be successfully performed on them. Most common technologies that fall into this category include Microsoft Windows, UNIX platform, or another vendor specific solution that has functionality that can be investigated using standard forensics methodologies
Modern/Proprietary
Modern/Proprietary technologies (Figure 1.14) are those that are critical to a control systems operation, have been created within the last 10 years, are still fully supported and understood primarily by the vendor (or systems integrator).
, the control systems technology and information about its operation are not generally available through open-source methods. Moreover, the technology and protocols associated with command and control of the operational environment may only be known to the vendor and just partially to the owner/operator.
Legacy/Proprietary
Legacy/Proprietary technologies (Figure 1.15) are those that are critical to a control systems operation, may have been deployed more than 10 years ago, have moderate computing capabilities (compared to modern systems), may or may not be supported be the vendor (if still around), in most cases only understood (in-depth) by the vendor.
Chapter 2: To strengthen the resilience of this infrastructure, President Obama issued Executive Order 13636 (EO), “Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity”, on February 12, 2013.1 This Executive Order calls for the development of a voluntary Cybersecurity Framework (“Framework”) that provides a “prioritized, flexible, repeatable, performance-based, and cost- effective approach” to manage cybersecurity risk for those processes, information, and systems directly involved in the delivery of critical infrastructure services. The Framework, developed in collaboration with industry, provides guidance to an organization on managing cybersecurity risk.

Risk Management Redefined
The Tier definitions are based on the conditions of satisfaction of three attributes:
Risk Management Process 2) Integrated Risk Management Program 3) External Participation
Tier 1: Partial[58]
Risk Management Process Organizational cybersecurity risk management practices are not formalized, and risk is managed in an ad hoc and sometimes reactive manner. Prioritization of cybersecurity activities may not be directly informed by organizational risk objectives, the threat environment, or business/mission requirements.
Integrated Risk Management Program There is limited awareness of cybersecurity risk at the organizational level and an organization-wide approach to managing cybersecurity risk has not been established. The organization implements cybersecurity risk management on an irregular, case-by-case basis due to varied experience or information gained from outside sources. The organization may not have processes that enable cybersecurity information to be shared within the organization.
External Participation An organization may not have the processes in place to participate in coordination or collaboration with other entities.
Tier 4: Adaptive[61] Risk Management Process The organization adapts its cybersecurity practices based on lessons learned and predictive indicators derived from previous and current cybersecurity activities. Through a process of continuous improvement incorporating advanced cybersecurity technologies and practices, the organization actively adapts to a changing cybersecurity landscape and responds to evolving and sophisticated threats in a timely manner.
Integrated Risk Management Program There is an organization-wide approach to managing cybersecurity risk that uses risk-informed policies, processes, and procedures to address potential cybersecurity events. Cybersecurity risk management is part of the organizational culture and evolves from an awareness of previous activities, information shared by other sources, and continuous awareness of activities on their systems and networks.
External Participation The organization manages risk and actively shares information with partners to ensure that accurate, current information is being distributed and consumed to improve cybersecurity before a cybersecurity event occurs.
Chapter 3: The purpose of the Framework is to provide a common language to enable understanding, managing, and communicating cybersecurity risk both internally and externally. It is intended for use in helping identify and prioritize actions for reducing cybersecurity risk. The Framework is a tool, used for aligning policy, business, and technological approaches to managing that risk. It is meant to be used to manage cybersecurity risk across entire organization or can be focused to service, department within the organization. “Different types of entities - including sector coordinating structures, associations, and organizations - can use the Framework for different purposes, including the creation of common Profiles.”

Chapter4: The purpose of this chapter is to look at how an organization can use the Framework as a key part or enabler of its current process for identifying, assessing, and managing cybersecurity risk. Note, the Framework is not designed to replace existing processes; an organization can use its current process and overlay it onto the Framework to determine gaps in its current cybersecurity risk approach and develop a roadmap to improvement. Using the Framework as a cybersecurity risk management tool, can enable the organization in determining activities that are most important to critical service delivery and prioritize the cost of those activities to reduce the risk and maximize the impact of the investment.

CSET Tool
The Cyber Security Evaluation Tool (CSET®) is a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) no-cost tool that assists organizations in protecting their key national cyber assets. The tool was developed by the DHS Industrial Control System Cyber Emergency Response Team (ICS-CERT) with assistance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This tool provides users with a systematic, consistent, and standards based approach for assessing the security posture of their Information Technology systems and networks. The tool uses high-level and detailed questions related to all industrial control and IT systems that includes the NIST Cybersecurity Critical Infrastructure Framework, referenced in the tool standards as “NCSF V1”.
The value of the tool is that it can guide the key stakeholders, custodians, and owners in systematically understanding their current IT and control system environment, potential gaps in security, and assist in developing a plan to close those gaps. The tool includes instructional videos, help screens, and information not only about how to use the tool but information on what standards might apply to one’s organization.
The tool gives organizations who have not conducted any sort of comprehensive risk assessment of the IT infrastructure, an excellent starting point.
