DESCRIPTION:
Tyson Macaulay is the security liaison officer (SLO) for Bell Canada. In this role, he is responsible for technical and operational risk management solutions for Bell’s largest enterprise clients. Further information on Macaulay publications and practice areas can be found online at: tysonmacaulay.Previously, Macaulay served as director of risk management for a U.S. At Kenexis, he is responsible for deve
2) They provided the background information for a beginner to understand, but followed that up with significant technical detail and examples. I had high hopes for this book since Bryan Singer is very experienced in ICS, ICS security, and IT security and Bryan and co-author Tyson McCauley did not disappoint. … I could go on and on as I highlighted sentences throughout the chapter and was muttering yes as I read. It’s a good book for a beginner or intermediate in either area, and even those with years of experience in both areas will learn something. The two best things about this book are: 1) They got the facts right about both ICS and IT security. To date this is
Dale Peterson said Best ICS Security Book To Date By Far. I had high hopes for this book since Bryan Singer is very experienced in ICS, ICS security and IT security --- and Bryan and co-author Tyson McCauley did not disappoint. To date this is clearly the best book on ICS Security by far. (Note - Langner's book Robust Control System Networks: How to Achieve Reliable Control After Stuxnet is a 5-star, must read, but it intentionally talks engineering not security)The. Cybersecurity for ICS This book has been an excellent read. It has an abundance of engineering detail and builds on the NIST 800-82 and NERC guidelines. I have recommended this book to my fellow security engineers and have shared it with folks at CSSP INL.. Jovita Nsoh said Great basis for an APT strategy. I would say that Dale Peterson's reviews of this book in Digital Bond [] and here on amazon are the most poignant and insightful reviews and do not require a repeat by me. However, I must add that Macaulay's recommendations in "Cybersecurity for Industrial Control Systems: SCADA, DCS, PLC, HMI, and SIS", while great were more reactive in nature and did not provide much futuristic approaches to designing secur
Reviewing risk assessment techniques and the evolving risk assessment process, the text concludes by examining what is on the horizon for ICS security, including IPv6, ICSv6 test lab designs, and IPv6 and ICS sensors.. Next, it explains why security requirements differ from IT to ICS. As industrial control systems (ICS), including SCADA, DCS, and other process control networks, become Internet-facing, they expose crucial services to attack. Threats like Duqu, a sophisticated worm found in the wild that appeared to share portions of its code with the Stuxnet worm, emerge with increasing frequency. Explaining how to develop and implement an effective cybersecurity program for ICS, Cybersecurity for Industrial Control Systems: SCADA, DCS, PLC, HMI, and SIS provides you with the tools to ensure network security without sacrificing the efficiency and functionality of ICS.Highlighting the key issues that need to be addressed, the book begins with a thorough introduction to ICS. It outlines the range of vulnerabilities inherent in the ICS quest for efficiency and functionality that necessitates risk behavior such as remote access and control of critical equipment. It discusses business, cost, competitive, and regulatory drivers and the conflicting priorities of convergence. It differentiates when standard IT security solutions can be used and where SCADA-specific practices are required.The book examines the plethora of potential threats to ICS, includin
