Abstract

This is an analysis by a joint team to provide a lessons learned community resource from the cyber attack on the Ukrainian power grid. This document, the Defense Use Case (DUC), summarizes important learning points and presents several mitigation ideas based on publicly available information on ICS incidents in Ukraine. The E-ISAC and SANS are providing a summary of the available information compiled from multiple publicly available sources as well as analysis performed by the SANS team in relation to this event. This document provides specific mitigation concepts for power system Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) defense, as well as a general learning opportunity for ICS defenders.
