Abstract :
This paper presents an activity related to Control System Security. The control system works every place in the society, including power source, factory, building, home, and so on. The controllers are connected to Internet through an engineering tool on a general O/S, for example Windows. Therefore, vulnerability of the general O/S and the tool may become that of controller. STUXNET attacked this security hole in 2010. Security Task Force is made by METI in 2011. And Control System Security Centre established in 2012 succeeds the work of the TF.
