ICS (Industrial Control Systems)

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are systems used to monitor and manage industrial processes, such as manufacturing, chemical production, and energy generation. They integrate hardware and software to control machinery, production flows, and infrastructure operations. By collecting data from sensors and controlling devices, ICS enable efficient and safe operations, often in real-time. Examples include SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems, which allow operators to oversee and manage processes remotely. ICS are essential for maintaining safety, efficiency, and reliability in industries that are critical to the economy and everyday life.
