  • Abstract
    Process automation systems are key to the organizations behind the UK´s critical national infrastructure (CNI) as they both monitor and control critical processes involved with the production and transportation of gas, electricity and water. As these systems become more ´open´ - using Ethernet, TCP/IP and Web technologies - they become vulnerable to the same threats that exist for normal IT systems.
