Harnessing SCADA Without Undermining Security
SCADA has become a powerful tool for utilities, providing the ability to monitor and control vast service areas from a single location. However, as computers become more tightly integrated with telemetry systems and remote field equipment, the related security problems become more severe. This article discusses the real potential for serious property damage and harm to the public as a result of an intentionally disrupted water treatment process or a disabled sewer pump. A utility that harnesses the power of SCADA while vigilantly guarding against its potential misuse offers its customers the safest, most cost‐effective service.
