About the Author: Andrew Ginter is the VP Industrial Security at Waterfall Security Solutions.
We can and should defend our Scada systems so thoroughly that even our most resourceful enemies tear their hair out and curse the names of our Scada systems\' designers.
For important Scada systems, effective attacks should always be ruinously expensive and difficult.
While nothing can be completely secure, we decide how high to set the bar for our attackers.
Strong Scada security is possible, practical, and cheaper than failed, IT-centric, defense-in-depth.
In "Scada Security" Ginter describes this failure and describes an alternative.
Defense in depth has failed us.
This is unacceptable.
