Advanced Protection System for SCADA using Fog Computing

The Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system keeps track of the condition of various substation equipment and provides control signals as necessary.. Further, it logs substation history and sends out alerts in the event of electrical mishaps. The SCADA system is a computer programme for supervisory-level plant or equipment monitoring and control. The challenges facing with SCADA are something with a high degree of complexity usually has many parts that are arranged in a sophisticated fashion. The incorporation of new elements into SCADA systems, such as computers, operator stations, networks, and other resources, led to an increase in complexity. The SCADA system's adaptability allows for communication between any two or more points in the network at any given time, rather than being limited to a direct line of transmission. To put it simply, SCADA systems are widely deployed for real-time data collection, analysis, and control, they are frequently attacked by cybercriminals. Hackers can attack the remote-control software to manually trip breakers, and also use a complex malware that directly manipulate SCADA systems. That's why it's crucial to protect your infrastructure from SCADA-related attacks and threats. To defend system from hackers we use cloud service which are specifically meant as storehouses for data. The SCADA system software and data are hosted and maintained remotely rather than on individual computers. A cloud server makes information stored on it available from any location. Because of this, the cloud is a particularly appealing alternative for managers who continuously want historical and real-time information on the syatem.
