INTRODUCTION
Critical infrastructure systems are needed to provide different things for society. They also store
many important pieces of data and that makes them a big target to cyberattacks, one technology
used to prevent these attacks is SCADA.
WHAT IS SCADA?
Scada stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, and it is used in different facilities in
order to control and observe operations. It is mainly used in major companies to make sure
everything is in order. SCADA systems collect data in real-time to allow people to fix any
mistakes before they become a problem. They can also be controlled remotely and give
commands to other systems to control the way they work.
In conclusion, the SCADA systems have a huge role in protecting data in industries. They
provide the access to users, prevent cyberattacks, and make sure the security is up to date for the
infrastructure. Without the use of SCADA, a lot of data can become vulnerable to hackers
therefore, putting these systems to use is important for maintaining the safety of data in these
industries.
