Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are a category of hardware and software solutions designed to monitor and control industrial processes and infrastructure. These systems are crucial for the functioning of various sectors like manufacturing, energy, transportation, and water treatment, among others. ICS encompass various control systems including Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, Distributed Control Systems (DCS), and other smaller control system configurations such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). They work in tandem with physical machinery and operational processes to automate complex tasks, maintain optimal conditions, and ensure safety and reliability. Due to their critical role in infrastructure, ICS are often a focus of cybersecurity efforts as they are increasingly targeted in cyber-attacks that aim to disrupt critical national infrastructure.
