Understanding OPC and how it is deployed
Produced jointly by British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), Digital Bond and Byres Research
A survey of 113 OPC users from Fortune 500 companies show that OPC deployments may be putting industry at risk. Companies are using it for mission critical applications, are allowing access from potentially insecure networks and don’t understand how to secure OPC properly.
This paper, based on industry surveys and in-lab testing of both OPC vulnerabilities and security solutions, is the first in a series of three whitepapers that will be released over the next two months. The second and third white papers will investigate the specific security risks incurred in deploying OPC and offer security guidelines for industrial companies using the technology.
