Status of industry
In recent years, the automotive tire industry in China and globally has been experiencing rapid growth. However, during this development, the security issue of industrial control systems has become a bottleneck restricting the industry's progress. To prevent and reduce safety accidents in the production process of the tire manufacturing industry and to ensure the safety of employees' lives and the property of enterprises, effective safety protection measures for comprehensively controlling the occurrence of accidents during the manufacturing process have been proposed. Typical safety issues:
- There is a lack of necessary isolation control measures between the management network and the production network, between the production area and the control area of the production network, and among various production areas. Urgent security protection is needed for these.
- The mainframes such as the engineer station and the operator station may be invaded by malicious software such as viruses, worms and Trojans.
- It is impossible to achieve real-time detection and recording of malicious attack behaviors and operational errors in industrial networks.
Solution
While ensuring the availability of the system, protective measures are taken for industrial control systems, achieving "vertical layering, horizontal zoning. Boundary control, internal monitoring".
- "Vertical stratification and horizontal zoning" means that the industrial control system is vertically divided into four layers: the field equipment layer, the field control layer, the supervision control layer, and the production management layer. Horizontal zoning refers to the fact that each industrial control system should be isolated from each other on the network and be located in different security zones.
- "Boundary control, internal monitoring" refers to the control and monitoring of the system boundaries, namely the various operation stations, the connection points of industrial control systems, etc.
- Wireless networks, etc. need to implement boundary protection and access control measures. For the internal systems of industrial control, network traffic data should be monitored to detect intrusions, abnormal operations, abnormal access relationships, and abnormal traffic issues.
- Deploy an industrial firewall between the management network core switch and the production network core switch. Implement cold backup for A network and B network, and combine it with the existing traditional firewalls to form a comprehensive boundary security isolation measure, thereby enhancing the security protection at the network boundary.
- Deploy an industrial firewall between the virtual server and the production server, and set an external read-only control policy for the production server to prevent the production server data from being maliciously tampered with.
