Description

Diamond is a new third-generation light source, which has only recently been completed near Oxford in the UK. As a new facility, it was possible to implement an 'isolated' accelerator control system network right from the start of operation. Of course, isolating the network leads to inevitable usability issues. This presentation will give an overview of Diamonds control network, the trade-offs between security and usability that have been made and plans for improving security in the future.
