Abstract

In this paper, we describe the incremental building of a unique industrial control system laboratory designed to investigate security vulnerabilities and to support development of mitigating tools and techniques. The laboratory has been built over time in a modular fashion with representative sectors of the critical infrastructure included. For two years, a strong collaboration with universities in Australia has been established and is described. The work has been supported by the Department of Homeland Security, the National Science Foundation, and the National Security Agency as well as by participating industrial partners. While the laboratory does offer limited teaching support, its primary purpose is research. The authors have found the lab to be affordable, effective, and representative of systems employed in the nation's critical infrastructure.
