Secure Critical Infrastructure

SEL cybersecurity solutions are an essential element to protecting systems that operate our nation’s critical infrastructure. Utility executives and technicians alike are finding that these solutions provide an effective means for reducing electronic vulnerabilities in their critical communications systems. National and international research firms have identified threats and documented specific cases of real cyberattacks. In some cases, it cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair the damage. SEL cybersecurity solutions start at just under $500.

 

SCADA Systems Security

SEL security devices ensure supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems will not fall victim to disgruntled insiders, network hackers, or even cyberterrorism. SEL security solutions are compatible with existing SCADA communications protocols and have little impact on data flow.

 

Proven Compatibility

With SCADA Systems

Cybersecurity devices must be compatible with existing SCADA communications devices and protocols, such as data radios and modems using DNP3 or Modbus® protocols. Also, SCADA cybersecurity devices must not interfere with data flow on control and/or monitoring systems.

Authentication, Encryption, and Logging

SEL devices secure SCADA systems by authenticating and logging users as well as encrypting and authenticating data on a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications. SEL rigorously tests the operation of its security devices with various SCADA devices and protocols, resulting in designs that have little or no impact on data throughput. SEL wireless and serial encrypting transceivers allow users to comply with NERC CIP standards.

 

Cybersecurity Training

SEL provides real-world, hands-on cybersecurity training to help customers comply with NERC cybersecurity requirements, teaching them to implement strong electronic access controls in SEL relays and communications products. Participants learn how to identify and mitigate possible attacks and to assess real threats and risks to power system security.
