University SCADA lab doesn’t address cybersecurity

In this month’s issue of IEEE Power and Energy, there is an article titled: ”Remote Control”. It discusses the SCADA laboratory set up at Jamia Millia Islamia’s university power engineering department in New Delhi, India. The lab is a state-of-the art facility to help bachelors’ and masters’ students in power systems engineering to keep up with the latest power systems technologies. It appears to be a very comprehensive automation lab to address SCADA, RTUs, modern communications, Smart Grid, etc.

In this month’s issue of IEEE Power and Energy, there is an article titled: ”Remote Control”. It discusses the SCADA laboratory set up at Jamia Millia Islamia’s university power engineering department in New Delhi, India. The lab is a state-of-the art facility to help bachelors’ and masters’ students in power systems engineering to keep up with the latest power systems technologies. It appears to be a very comprehensive automation lab to address SCADA, RTUs, modern communications, Smart Grid, etc. The 8 page article does not mention cyber security in the verbiage or any of the figures. This is another example of the need for the engineering and security communities to work together.
