SYO-701 CHAPTER 10
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| TLS | Transport Layer Security, a protocol that encrypts email messages for security and privacy |
| SSL | Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a security protocol that provides privacy, authentication, and integrity to Internet communications. SSL eventually evolved into Transport Layer Security (TLS). |
| SCADA | Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition, runs on the same software as client computers and vulnerable to the same threats |
| SCADA Level 0 | Plant Level, lowest level and includes physical equipment and processes on the factory floor |
| SCADA Level 1 | Controller Level, real-time control of physical processes and includes devices such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) |
| SCADA Level 2 | Coordinating Computer Level, Human-Machine Interface (HMI) systems that provide a centralized view of the plant's operations |
| SCADA Level 3 | Program Logic Controller Level, manages and controls the overall production process. May include recipe management, production scheduling, and data logging |
| SCADA systems deal with critical services such as? | Energy, Facilities, Manufacturing, Logistics, Industrial |
| RTOS | Real-Time Operating Systems, designed for apps such as Light Control or Navigation Systems (flight control), where everything happens in real-time. Ensures that high-priority tasks are executed within a predetermined time frame. |
| Embedded Systems | Engine Control Units (ECU), Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS), Smart Home Systems |
| HA | High Availability, 99.999% uptime, aka the five nines |
| GZRS | Geo-Zone Redundant Storage, data redundancy via duplication across various regions and zones (a strategy known as geographically dispersed regions) |
| Resilience | measured by the amount of time it takes an organization to recover from a critical failure |
| PDU | Power Distribution Unit, device that distributes power to devices. It can distribute power efficiently and remotely monitor power use and receive alerts |
| Compute | in the cloud, allow a Cloud Service Provider (CSP) to provide additional resources immediately on demand, and particularly useful with serverless architecture. |
