# Cybersecurity Industrial Control Systems Security
###### The World of Cybersecurity Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Security:
> A collection of awesome software, libraries, documents, books, resources and cool stuff about industrial control systems in cybersecurity.
> Thanks to all contributors, you're awesome and wouldn't be possible without you! Our goal is to build a categorized community-driven collection of very well-known resources.

[Industrial control system (ICS)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_control_system) is a collective term used to describe different types of control systems and associated instrumentation, which include the devices, systems, networks, and controls used to operate and/or automate industrial processes. Depending on the industry, each ICS functions differently and are built to electronically manage tasks efficiently. Today the devices and protocols used in an ICS are used in nearly every industrial sector and critical infrastructure such as the manufacturing, transportation, energy, and water treatment industries.

- There are several types of [ICSs](https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/security/definition/industrial-control-system), the most common of which are **Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems**, and **Distributed Control Systems (DCS)**. Local operations are often controlled by so-called Field Devices that receive supervisory commands from remote stations.

## Tools



AttkFinder


AttkFinder is a tool that performs static program analysis of PLC programs, and
produce Data-oriented Attack vectors. In a nutshell, AttkFinder takes PLC programs written
under the standard IEC-61131-3 in xml-format or structured text,
and builds a Data-Flow graph (DFG), a Control-Flow graph (CFG) and translates the program
into a Structured Intermediate Representation Language (STIR) version. A symbolic
execution engine analyses the stir-version code searching for attack vectors that can be
exploited by a malicious actuator.​
