Pentesting Smart Grid and SCADA with SamuraiSTFU by Justin Searle

This is not your traditional SCADA security course! This course teaches hands-on penetration testing techniques used to test embedded electronic field devices, network protocols, RF communications, and controlling servers of ICS and Smart Grid systems like PLCs, RTUs, smart meters, Home Area Networks (HAN), smart appliances, SCADA, substation automation, and synchrophasors. This course is structured around the formal penetration testing methodology created by the National Energy Sector Cybersecurity Organization Resource (NESCOR), a United States Department of Energy project. Using this methodology and SamuraiSTFU (Security Testing Framework for Utilities), an open source Linux distribution for pentesting energy sector systems and other critical infrastructure, we'll perform hands-on penetration testing tasks on embedded electronic field devices, their RF communications, and the myriad of user interfaces used throughout smart grid systems. We’ll tie these techniques and exercises back to the smart grid devices that can be tested using these techniques. We will also do exercises on dissecting and fuzzing smart grid protocols like modbus, DNP3, IEC 61850, ICCP, ZigBee, C37.118, and C12.22. The course exercises will be performed on a mixture of real world and simulated devices to give students the most realistic experience as possible in a portable classroom setting.

Advances in modern ICS systems such as the energy sector’s "Smart Grid" brings great benefits for electric utilities and customer alike, however these benefits come at a cost from a security perspective. With increased functionality and addition inter-system communication, the smart grid brings with it a greater risk of compromise that both utilities and customers must accept. To minimize this risk, penetration testing must be performed to minimize vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit the critical infrastructures that exist in all countries around the world.

Course Objectives

  1. Attendees will be able to explain the steps and methodology used in performing penetration tests on Industrial Control and Smart Grid systems.
  2. Attendees will be able to use the free and open source tools in SamuraiSTFU to discover and identify vulnerabilities in web applications.
  3. Attendees will be able to exploit several hardware, network, user interface, and server-side vulnerabilities.

Course Prerequisites

  • Basic penetration testing experience is desirable, but not required.
  • It is assumed that attendees will have no knowledge of ICS, Smart Grid, SCADA, or critical infrastructure.
  • This course is designed for intermediate level security professionals, be they engineers, technicians, analysts, managers, or penetration testers.

Recommended Reading before the Course

Resources You Are Responsible to Bring

  1. Laptop with at least two USB ports (three ports preferred). If you only have two USB ports and they are right next to each other, you will need to bring a USB extension cable.
  2. Latest VMware Player, VMware Workstation, VWware Fusion installed. Other virtualization software such as Parallels or VirtualBox will probably work if the attendee is familiar with its functionality, however VMware Player should be prepared as a backup just in case.
  3. Ability to disable all security software on their laptop such as Antivirus and/or firewalls
  4. At least twenty (20) GB of hard drive space
  5. At least four (4) GB of RAM

Resources Provided at the Course

  1. Power for your laptop
  2. Internet connectivity may or may not be available depending on the facility hosting the course
  3. Latest version of SamuraiSTFU (Security Testing Framework for Utilities)
  4. PDF version of the course slide deck
  5. Student hardware kits to use in class that must be returned at the end of class
  6. List of hardware items in the student kits and links to where students can purchase their own kits
