A paper that I presented on Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) won the second prize at the symposium conducted by the Electrical and Electronics Engineering department of the SRM University. Other topics on which I presented papers were Performance enhancement of wireless sensor networks using directional antennas, Smart card application and wireless communication. Also my research idea titled “Wavelet Based Image Compression Using SPIHT Algorithm “secured third prize in a technical festival.
Abstract: As industrial control systems (ICSs) have become increasingly connected and use more off-the-shelfcomponents, new vulnerabilities to cyber attacks have emerged. This tutorial looks at three types of ICSs:programmable logic controllers (PLCs), supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, anddistributed control systems (DCSs), and then discusses security issues and remedies. This document alsoexplains the benefits and limitations of two cryptographic solutions (digital signatures and encryption) andelaborates on the reasons for using security ICs in an ICS to support cryptography.
AUTOMGEN runtime is an open source royalty free runtime for open PLCs. By using this runtime, any target systems can become compatible with the AUTOMGEN automation workshop: IEC1131 languages (ladder, SFC, etc.), 2D and 3D SCADA, WEB SCADA, etc
