CompTIA CASP+: Industrial Computing Environments

IN THIS COURSE

• 1.  Course Overview
  1m 37s
  Meet your instructor and explore common industrial network protocols and terminology. You’ll learn how Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, or SCADA, relates to Industrial Control Systems, or ICS. Next, you'll explore NIST ICS security control documentation. Finally, you’ll configure an S7 PLC emulator and use metasploit to stop the device. FREE ACCESS
• 2.  Security and Industrial Computing
  6m 32s
  Explore security and industrial computing. An industrial control system, or ICS, uses specialized computing devices to deliver a service or manufacture a product. This is driven by a PLC, a programmable logic controller, which is an industry-specific, specialized computer. ICS also use a remote terminal unit (RTU). Review security measures such as air-gapping and multi-factor authentication. FREE ACCESS
• 3.  Industrial Control System Protocols
  4m 9s
  Learn about industrial control system protocols, or ICS. These systems use very specific software protocols, including Modbus, Profinet, or the S7 Communication protocol to allow communication between industrial devices. You’ll also explore the Common Industrial Protocol, or CIP. Finally, take a look at the importance of cybersecurity and knowing vulnerabilities. FREE ACCESS
• 4.  Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
  5m 50s
  Explore Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, often referred to as SCADA. It’s a collection of Industrial Control Systems devices, along with protocols like Modbus, Profinet, or DNP3. It’s all about communication between these devices and collecting that data for monitoring purposes. You will also learn how it relates to DCS, SIS, PLCs, and touch on security. FREE ACCESS
• 5.  Applying NIST SP 800-82: Guide to ICS Security
  5m 9s
  Review the National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST, document SP 800-82: Guide to ICS Security. This document provides guidance on how to secure Industrial Control Systems (ICS), including Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, Distributed Control Systems (DCS), and other control system configurations such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), while addressing their unique performance, reliability, and safety requirements. FREE ACCESS
• 6.  Installing and Starting an S7 PLC Emulator in Linux
  5m 47s
  Learn to install and start an S7 PLC Emulator in Linux. A PLC, or a programmable logic controller, comes in many forms. The S7 protocol for Siemens PLCs enables the connection of S7 automation devices without any communication partner. The S7 PLC can make a connection to control many different types of industrial devices because PLCs have multiple connection inputs. FREE ACCESS
• 7.  Using Metasploit to Remotely Stop a Siemens S7 PLC
  9m 30s
  Learn to use Metasploit to remotely stop a Siemens S7 PLC. You’ll see a Siemens S7 server PLC emulator onscreen. You’ll exploit this remotely over the network from another Linux host. Essentially, you’ll use Kali Linux with Metasploit to stop the PLC emulator. FREE ACCESS
• 8.  Course Summary
  1m 13s
  Review what you’ve learned in this course. You learned to recognize common industrial control systems, or ICS, terms and protocols, how to harden ICS environments, and how to install and start an S7 PLC in Linux. You explored security and industrial computing, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, or SCADA. You also examined NIST Special Publication 800-82. FREE ACCESS
