Description
The Control System group at the forthcoming National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is in the process of drafting a Cybersecurity Requirements document. This discussion will provide a general overview of the network topology with a focus on the logical flow of traffic. Security at and accessibility to the control complex and beam-lines will be explored in the context of policy, user expectations, and performance requirements with a survey of potential associated technologies (One-time-passwords, VPNs, Centrify/LDAP, NX/Citrix). Finally, providing wireless access to the control system network is viewed as an attractive and cost effective supplement if done right. A secure wireless implementation will be illustrated.
