Based on recent ANSI/ISA reports, this handbook outlines security measures for protecting the instrumentation, control, and automation networks that exist within utility grids, chemical processing plants, and discrete manufacturing plants. Although physical and personnel security are briefly considered, it focuses on the threat of attacks through computer networks and offers solutions based on defense in layers, access control technologies, and written security documents. Case histories of DuPont and Procter & Gamble round out the book. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
