Cyberoam Technologies, the global Network Security appliances provider has called for a holistic security for connected critical infrastructure to prevent hackers from compromising Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Nigeria CommunicationsWeek can report.
SCADA networks are national industrial control systems – computer systems (consisting of hardware, software and communication components) designed to monitor and control various critical infrastructures or facility- based processes.
Cyberoam warned that hackers could potentially have control over the valve systems of those particular power plants – and may choose to use that control to cause widespread damage.
Cyberoam with its proven experience in network security said it understands that securing converged enterprise networks, critical infrastructure and ICS/SCADA systems is a battle beyond old-school firewalls.
With a worldwide presence spanning over 125+ countries and thousands of network security deployments, Cyberoam knows what it takes to secure connected ICS networks and computing assets.
With SCADA-aware firewall and IPS capabilities, real-time in-depth reporting into user and network events and centralized security management for enterprise and SCADA networks, Cyberoam brings all it takes to strengthen defenses against growing menace of threats.
