2.6-2.7 Flashcards
Embedded systems
Software a d hardware designed for a function like traffic lights or medical imagining systems
Running on system on a chip (soc) which has multiple components
A Small rasberry pi has cache memory, external interface support, flash memory, power consimption etc
Sometimes cant be upgraded so outdated become security issues
Fpga
Field programmable gate array that can be configed after manufacturing that can be programmed afterwards, its an array of logic blocks for future programming
Scada/ics
Supervisory control and data acquisition system or industrial control system
For large amounts of insdustrial equipment to be networked and used
Can also mass Config, best not to connect to internet
Iot
Smart devices rhat can connect many systems like air con connected apps, video door bells, smart watch, heating management remote etc internet of things devices
Voip
Voice over ip telephones that allow voice comms that act as a stand alone com
Rtos
Real time os that desgined to work on industrial devices and equipment thet works at specific times and is the main process not subprocess that is used
Embedded system
Communications
5g at the moment 10gig /s
Subscriber identity
Module
Sim that identifies network to the iot device
Narrow band
Not cellular but across a narrow range of frequencies with scada equipment and such
Zigbee
Ieee standard alternative to wifi and bluetooth over longer distances with less power and able to create a meshed network
Ism band 900mhz to 2.4 ghz
Embedded system contraints
Low cost so not high security, limited features, difficult to upgrade , perhaps no direct power source, may need to change up battery often
Physical security
Barricades/bollards
Access controls vestibules
Alarms
Signs
Video surveillance
Industrial camoflage
Security guard (two person integrity) with access lists
Biometrics
Door access control
Cable locks for equipment like laptops
Usb data blocker to prevent juice jacking
Proper lighting
Fencing if its ok to be obvious and they can see inside
Fire suppression (not water) Dupont fm200
Sensors identify movement, proximity, moisture, temperature and noise sensors
Drones for larger areas that are difficult to access for specific situations
Faraday cage, stops radio signals but not all can even block for helping and calling out tho
Screened subnet separate network that has controlled access, but doesnt have access to internal network
Protectect distribution to protect cabling
Airgap
Physical disconnection from internal or scada networks from the other networks
Vaults and safes
An entire secure room to protect data and files, protect from disaster or theft
Hot and cold aisles
Racks constantly generate heat, a cooling system helps temp control, so separation of hot and cold aisles, where cold aisles are send cold air and hot air is sent back to cool again and works in a cycle
