Abstract:
Industrial control systems have recently become easy prey for cyber attacks as they expand to the Internet, beyond data communication through the network. Among industrial control systems, the systems used by nuclear facilities are especially at high risk against cyber attacks because their dangerous assets are used in managing nuclear materials. Most of the nuclear licensees have recently established cyber security response plans to protect their critical systems from cyber threats. To enable the response plans, effective incident reporting procedures should also be established and notified to personnel who has responsibilities to discover and report an undesired event in a timely manner. This study presents ongoing work, which is part of the study for establishing a cyber security incident response framework for nuclear facilities, and to introduce cyber security incident reporting regulations at nuclear facilities in the Republic of Korea.
