Problems solved by technology

However, before ICS systems or devices implement access authorization, control engineers need to manually obtain resources or objects for authorization, import them into authorization components (such as firewalls, gateways, etc.), and define corresponding authorization policies, which leads to ICS The authorization information of the system cannot be automatically obtained, configured, and expanded, and the process is opaque to the control engineer, requiring the control engineer to spend a lot of time and energy manually collecting and configuring authorization information

Embodiment Construction

[0033] Because the existing ICS system requires control engineers to manually collect control resource information on each industrial control device for authorization before realizing authorization, the authorization information of the ICS system cannot be automatically collected, configured, and expanded, and it is opaque to the control engineering of. The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for automatically collecting and configuring authorization information, which can automatically access various industrial control devices, automatically retrieve control resources, obtain identification information of control resources, and perform corresponding authorization configuration, thus avoiding control engineers. Manual operation enables the ICS system to automatically collect, configure and expand authorization information.

[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following examples are give...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and apparatus for automatically acquiring and configuring authorization information, which can avoid and control hand-operated collection of information for authorization by engineers and enables an ICS can automatically acquire, configure and expanse the authorization information. The method comprises the following steps: according to the basic configuration information of each industrial control device, accessing each industrial control device; according to a communication protocol and an access mode of control resources, employed by each industrial control device, retrieving the control resources of each industrial control device, and obtaining the identification information of the control resources of each industrial control device; and according to the identification information of the control resources of each industrial control device, carrying out configuration of the authorization information.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of industrial control, in particular to a method and device for automatically collecting and configuring authorization information. Background technique [0002] Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are computer-based facilities, systems, and devices used to remotely monitor and / or control critical processes and physical properties. Industrial control systems collect data from the field, process and display these data information. In some industrial control systems, it is also necessary to reply control commands to local or remote control devices. [0003] ICS systems have traditionally been closed systems designed to meet functionality, safety and reliability goals. And traditional ICS systems have long been considered immune to cyberattacks due to their reliance on dedicated networks and hardware. But with the development of network technology, the need to protect ICS from cyber attacks has grown significan...
