Abstract
SCADA has now expanded as it utilizes the Internet as communication line. SCADA communications can contain sensitive data, it is also a core component of a SCADA Monitoring System. SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) communication can take place in a number of ways. Components that are designed to operate in safety-critical environments are usually designed to failsafe, but security vulnerabilities could be exploited by an attacker to disable the fail-safe mechanisms. This makes these devices must not only be designed for safety but also for security. Because of so many vulnerabilities, encryption Schemes are applied to secure the communication between the components. This work compares different Encryption Schemes for Securing Internet SCADA Component Communication.
