Definitions
- the present invention relates to an automation system with encryption functions according to claim 1.
- Automation systems are still largely connected to one another via local, closed networks.
- Various subsystems and assemblies within the automation system are increasingly being connected to each other by means of Ethernet or Profibus, for example via the Internet or intranet.
- Suitable communication means such as so-called web services, can then also be used to communicate with widely distributed assemblies of the automation systems and to exchange data.
- Due to the increasing openness of the automation system it is becoming increasingly important to take certain security aspects into account when transferring data and to introduce appropriate security measures to ensure authenticity, integrity and confidentiality when accessing and transferring data. This can be, for example, the introduction of passwords for access authorization or the use of encryption algorithms for the data to be communicated.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an automation system which takes into account the security aspects described above.
- the automation system in addition to a control processor, which can also be designed as a communication processor, provides an encryption processor which contains encryption algorithms for encrypting and decrypting data and üloer a data bus with at least one control If the automation processor of the automation system exchanges data for encryption and / or decryption, security aspects can be taken into account in particular in increasingly open automation systems.
- encrypted data can also be stored and managed by the encryption processor.
- the passwords required for access authorization and encryption information required for secure transmission so-called encryption keys, can thus be securely stored and also managed in a simple manner.
- the encryption processor can take over all security-related tasks, such as the execution of the security algorithms, the storage of protected data such as passwords or other data to be protected. Since all encryption services in the automation system are thus taken over by the encryption processor, the control processor connected to the encryption processor is not burdened with such tasks for the fulfillment of security aspects. This means that the performance of the control processor can continue to be fully and unrestrictedly available for controlling the automation system even after the introduction of safety aspects.
- the implementation of such an encryption processor which is already available as a hardware component, will be easy to implement, with which the necessary security aspects can then also be taken into account very quickly and inexpensively in the automation system.
- Security and access protection can be implemented in the simplest way by integrating an encryption processor in the automation system.
- subsystems from a number of subsystems of the automation system each have their own encryption selection processor, and if these subsystems and thus the encryption processors are connected to each other in such a way that with the encryption algorithms and / or stored encrypted data contained in the encryption processors, secure communication between the subsystems in the automation system is available, the data communication between these communication modules of the automation system can be protected
- subsystems on the most diverse subsystem levels such as actuators and sensors, or controls and peripheral devices, or different ones, can also be used.
- Automation systems and diagnostic systems, or automation systems and higher-level systems, such as planning systems communicate with one another in a protected manner and exchange data. This reduces the likelihood, particularly in the increasingly open, decentralized automation systems, that the data communicated between the individual subsystems can be spied on and manipulated.
- An advantage of this configuration is that no additional components and excellent security subsystems are required to protect an automation system.
- the encryption processor can either be fixed, for example soldered to a circuit board of a module or a subsystem, or it can also be designed for mobile operation.
- encryption processors can be plugged into an appropriate socket or can be read as a so-called chip card in an appropriate card reader.
- the protected data only has to be available temporarily, for example as a password, when accessing or communicating via a maintenance computer that can be connected to the automation system and to which a secure connection is to be established, an exchangeable mobile encryption processor from Advantage.
- the encryption processor preferably already contains encrypted data a priori, in particular centrally managed passwords.
- the passwords can be stored in the encryption processor even before the automation system is put into operation, so that secure access is possible without any major administrative effort when the automation system is started up or when a maintenance computer is accessed for the first time.
- the encryption processor is used as a coprocessor with the control processor already present in a subsystem and is connected to the latter via a data bus.
- the data can be exchanged, for example, via a corresponding backplane bus, a serial or parallel data interface, or also via a cordless infrared or radio link, such as Bluetooth.
- an encryption processor from [Helena Handschuh, "Smart Card Crypto-Coprocessors for Public-Key Cryptography", Smart Card Research and Applications, vol.
- a large number of encryption algorithms can already be executed by the encryption processor.
- a multitude of tasks can already be carried out that are necessary to carry out the safety aspects required in the automation system.
- encryption Processors generally already have a secure memory area for storing encrypted data and / or passwords. This makes it possible for the encryption processor to take over and carry out all the tasks necessary for realizing the security aspects, such as encrypting and decrypting and / or storing and / or managing encrypted data, and thus the control processor in the automation system cannot perform such tasks is charged.
- the encryption processor communicates with the control processor via a data bus and exchanges with it the corresponding data to be encrypted and decrypted.
- the control processor itself is in turn connected to further processors, in particular to control processors from further subsystems.
- the actual user data to be communicated is then exchanged between the individual control processors of the individual subsystems.
- secure communication, and in particular the exchange of user data, between the control processors and thus between the subsystems is achieved in that each of the subsystems involved in the communication each has its own encryption processor.
- the individual encryption processors are implicitly connected to one another via the corresponding control processors or communication processors of the individual subsystems in such a way that the encrypted data available in one of the encryption processors, ie generated and / or stored and / or managed, together with the encrypted data of everyone processors involved in the communication are used for secure, protected communication between these communication modules.
- the communication can be verified with regard to authenticity, integrity and confidentiality.
- Secure communication can take place not only between automation subsystems, but also between automation subsystems and other systems. A symmetry of systems is not necessary for this. Rather, the symmetry with regard to the encryption and decryption implemented in the automation system suffices.
