This standard on SCADA security provides guidance to the operators of Oil and Gas liquid pipeline systems for managing SCADA system integrity and security. The use of this document is not limited to pipelines regulated under Title 49 CFR 195.1, but should be viewed as a listing of best practices to be employed when reviewing and developing standards for a SCADA system. This document embodies the "API Security Guidelines for the Petroleum Industry." This guideline is specifically designed to provide the operators with a description of industry practices in SCADA Security, and to provide the framework needed to develop sound security practices within the operator's individual companies. It is important that operators understand system vulnerability and risks when reviewing the SCADA system for possible system improvements. See more
