Industrial Control Systems are the backbone of manufacturing, power, and critical infrastructure. These systems are made up of electronic and mechanical devices that operate on complex feedback systems that allow the production of consumer products, electricity, clean water, and nuclear industries. This broad reach of cybersecurity has earned it a place in the strategic roadmaps for many government agencies, including the Department of Energy. Their efforts stem from two general initiatives which are to improve cybersecurity in the energy sector and to strengthen effectiveness of Department of Energy incident management capabilities. Particular emphasis is in improving learning and preservations of knowledge at the labs, and to encourage collaboration between the labs. This project aims to develop Savannah River National Laboratory’s knowledge of industrial control systems cybersecurity by providing our engineers the opportunity to learn and execute advanced concepts in cybersecurity to real problems in industrial control systems. Successful execution of this project will enhance Savannah River National Laboratory’s knowledge and capability in the realm of Industrial Control System and Operational Technology cybersecurity as well as advance understanding of defensive needs in these environments. This will directly impact Savannah River National Laboratory’s capability to contribute and collaborate with Department of Energy, other Labs, and commercial partners in meeting Department of Energy national industrial control systems/Operations Technology cybersecurity goals.
