You are tasked with designing an ICS/SCADA system. You must choose a type of ICS/SCADA system from the options listed below:

Correctional facility

Paint processing plant

Water distribution facility

Considering the type of system you chose from the list above, discuss the model you would use (time or event-based or a combination) and for what purposes. What considerations do you need to take into account in your design? How does the PLC fit into this system?

Expert Solution

From given list I have chosen paint processing plant.

Here SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System) is a control system which utilises computer network to control and handle various processes from single computer. If we consider paint processing plant then in this we use time base as well as event based as we need to mix various colours at different time interval and different quantities.

PLC( programmable Logic Controller) is used to process different functions as per command given to it. Here in paint processing plant, when command from computer is given to plc for processing that function at that time whatever is the quantity is required to mix it is performed by plc. Hence plc is very essential device which is the main processing device which process task given by SCADA.

First, choose an ICS/SCADA system to depict. This may be a real or fictitious system. If it is a real system, please include citations for the organization and system design. Then, present the following sections in your paper: Introduction/System Organization: Describe the organization that owns the system. What is the name of the organization? How large is the organization? Where is the headquarters? Are there additional sites? Components: Explain the components of the system and include the network diagram in...

Write a 2- to 3-page paper (500 to 825 words), double-spaced, in APA format focused on designing an ICS/SCADA system, including a network diagram depicting the system components. Identify the major concepts, technologies, components, and security issues related to communications and data networks. Examine the architecture of a particular system and identify significant vulnerabilities, risks, and points at which specific security technologies/methods should be employed.
