48
Q

[ICS Components]
Operator Interface
Machine I/O Functions
The Controller

[Definitions]
Sensors for Monitoring conditions and actuators for making changes.
A computer that manages a machine and its functions.
A way for the operator to interact with the controller.

A

Machine I/O Functions = Sensors for Monitoring conditions and actuators for making changes.
The Controller = A computer that manages a machine and its functions.
Operator Interface = A way for the operator to interact with the controller.

49
Q

Explain several reasons for Segmenting Networks?

A

Security - also to reduce Network Congestion, Limit Network Problems, and Optimize Performance.
In some cases it’s also the standards, laws, or best practices that some organizations must follow.
Easier troubleshooting as well.

50
Q

Briefly explain what is meant by Presence Information Services?

A

Refers to technologies that enable users to show they are PRESENT for some form of communications.

51
Q

Explain how SCADA uses Remote Terminal Units (RTUs)?

A

RTU’s are added to SCADA to provide the same function as a Controller but is designed to have an amount of autonomy, and is designed to take advantage of some form of long-distance communication.

52
Q

How do DCS and SCADA systems differ from basic ICS Systems?

A

DCS (Distributed Computer Systems) are simply an extension of ICS and they use PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers) with no keyboards or monitors, also known as “Headless”.

SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System) handles ICS over a Large Area, and Long Distances, huge systems. They are more autonomous and READY to take care of just about anything. They use a RTU (REmote Terminal Unit) which is a more powerful PLC.

53
Q

Briefly describe the services unified communications adds to the classic VoIP?

A

It’s considered to be VoIP on steroids.

Allows for Collaborative Tools/Workflow sessions, Presentations, Video Conferencing in Real Time, and Fax/Messaging, among other things.

54
Q

Describe two places where we begin to see connectivity in Closed Systems?

A

Closed Systems are mostly used with CCTV (Closed-Circuit Televisions) where they are self-contained, in which Video Cameras feed their signal to specific, dedicated monitors and storage devices. They can be monitored in real time by Security Staff, but the monitoring location is limited to wherever the video monitors are placed.

55
Q

Describe the cornerstone of differentiated services (DiffServ) in terms of the two pieces of data that go into every IP Header?

A

Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) and Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) comrpise the differentiated services field.

56
Q

Describe the function of a unified communication (UC) Server?

A

It’s basically the Switchboard of a UC System - local connector.

Stores Voicemail and handles Intra-Calls.

Supports any UC provided services.

57
Q

Provide a brief timeline of TCP/IP based communications?

A

7 Years ago, TCP/IP-based communications began to replace the traditional PBX-style phone systems in most orgs.

Today, TCP/IP communications encompass a range of technologies, including Voice, Video, and Messaging.

58
Q

Explain how Operators interact with Controllers?

A

Operators monitor process, functions - through monitors and the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and intervenes if needed.

59
Q

Explain how the OSI Model can be used to help understand Network segmentation?

A
Layer 1 (Physical) - Separates your Network physically.
Layer 2 (Data Link) - Separates your Network into separate Broadcast Domains.
Layer 3 (Network) - Separates the Broadcast Domains by using different Subnets or blocking IP Routes.
Above Layer 3 - VPNs separate SSIDs, separate Windows Domains, Virtualization.
