ICSSCADA
ICSSCADA is a term used to describe a class of industrial control system SCADA platforms that integrate cyber-physical sensing, real-time process control, and data analytics to improve reliability, security, and operational efficiency. The acronym is found in industry discussions and vendor literature, but there is no single formal standard defining ICSSCADA.
Typical ICSSCADA architecture includes field devices such as PLCs and RTUs, communications networks, gateways, human-machine interfaces,
Core functions include real-time monitoring, alarm management, data logging, trend analysis, predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and
Standards and interoperability are addressed through OPC UA for data exchange, and cybersecurity guidance drawn from
Applications span manufacturing, power and utilities, water and wastewater, oil and gas, and transportation, where ICSSCADA
Security considerations emphasize defense-in-depth, segmentation between IT and OT networks, secure remote access, patch management, supply
Limitations include higher complexity, cost, and the need for specialized OT/IT skills. Adoption often requires governance,
