Defender

About Product

C-DAC's COPS Defender is a protocol hardening solution intended to address the vulnerabilities in transmission SCADA protocols like IEC 60870-5-101 and IEC 60870-5-104 in the power systems. The solution offers to authenticate any control from the control center towards RTUs and prevent any malicious events that may take place due to man-in-the-middle attacks. This also provides an encrypted channel between a control center and the RTUs connected to it. This is aimed to address the security concerns like data spoofing, data modification, replay attack and non-repudiation.

Features

• Hardening of the following protocols:
  IEC 60870-5-101
  IEC 60870-5-104
• Deployable with existing SCADA environment
• Implements encrypted channel between RTU and control center
• Adherence to IEC 62351 standard for providing application layer security
• Identifying possible man-in-the-middle attack and preventing consequent attacks like data spoofing, data modification and replay attack.
