Plant SCADA security involves three key areas:
- Encrypted communications - a System Management Server is used to manage certificates that allow encrypted communications between Plant SCADA computers (see Encrypted Communications).
- Security Roles - security-related operations within Plant SCADA's engineering and runtime environments can only be performed by users assigned to a role with relevant permissions (see Security Roles).
- Runtime System Security - settings within a Plant SCADA project that control permissions within the runtime environment (see Runtime System Security).
