Description

Learn the threats and vulnerabilities of critical infrastructure to cybersecurity attack.  Definitions are provided for cybersecurity technical terminology and hacker jargon related to automated control systems common to buildings, utilities, and industry. Buildings today are automated because the systems are complicated and so we depend on the building controls system (BCS) to operate the equipment.

We also depend on a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) to keep a record of what was repaired and to schedule required maintenance.

SCADA, BCS, and CMMS all can be hacked. The Cybersecurity Lexicon puts cyber jargon related to building controls all in one place.

The book is a handy desk reference for professionals interested in preventing cyber-physical attacks against their facilities in the real world.
