Description: Das Projekt "KRITIS Scalable Safe and Secure Modules, Subproject: Small Safe and Secure Modules" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: CANway technology GmbH.Under the IT Security Act 2.0, operators of critical infrastructures are obliged to operate their IT systems in accordance with the current state of the art. At the same time, the number of cyber attacks on communications equipment and operational facilities is growing, with the aim of causing damage and gaining control of critical systems. Without IT security measures, attacks can lead to the point of disruption of service. However, challenges arise when integrating established security functions from the enterprise environment into SCADA networks, which require innovative new approaches to improve resilience in the long term. In addition to the need for a system to effectively detect attacks, there is the problem of updating cryptographic techniques over the deployment period of the components to counteract the much shorter expected lifetime of the algorithms. The funding project therefore aims to protect all vertical and horizontal data communications from control centers to terminals by integrating security modules into the systems at various scaling levels. These modules are to implement state-of-the-art IT security functions over the entire service life of the CRITIS components, cryptographically securing communications and detecting attacks at an early stage. In the S3M subproject, CANWAY is developing modules for connecting the perimeter boundary between the wide-area SCADA system and the local distribution stations, as well as for connecting the local field level with the field devices. The modules are responsible for securing any communication paths by cryptographic measures and thus provide protection against attacks up to sensors or actuators of critical infrastructures.
