SCADA security – good news or nightmare?
Joining of words „security“ and „SCADA“ is important topic in discussions (not only) for professionals for few last years. SCADA systems are very important for control of technology, distribution and production systems in the utility business sector. These systems were typically built as integral part of whole technology complex years ago. SCADA systems were developed as operationally robust and safe systems, but how they’ll manage risks in face of cyber threads in 21th century?
Talk is based on experiences from real projects and solved topics for internal customers in CEZ Group and other external cases.
