We all agree that SCADA and Industrial Control System security needs to improve. However there is a lot of disagreement on what exactly needs to happen to make security for industrial systems easier to deploy and more effective.

I am just flying back from attending my first NSA Trusted Computing Conference in Orlando, Florida. While this is not an ICS or SCADA security conference, if you want to get a glimpse of what security technologies to expect in the next decade, this is a good show to attend.

Readers of this blog are familiar with the significantly increased level of threat to industrial control systems (ICS) that the Stuxnet malware and the publication of many SCADA zero-day vulnerabilities have created.
