CompTIA Security+ Certification SY0-601: The Total Course - Industrial Control System (ICS)

The video tutorial provides an in-depth look at industrial control systems (ICS), focusing on programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and their applications in various industries. It highlights the security challenges associated with PLCs, emphasizing the need for firmware updates and network isolation. The tutorial also introduces real-time operating systems (RTOS) used in PLCs and discusses the role of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems in managing dispersed industrial environments. Key security incidents, such as the Stuxnet worm, are used to illustrate potential vulnerabilities.

How can monitoring stations contribute to the security of PLCs?

Describe the potential risks associated with malware in industrial control systems.

What is SCADA and how does it relate to PLCs in an industrial environment?
