K S Manoj is an electronics and communication engineer with design interest in physical-cyber security of ICS who continues to explore the adoption of new security strategies in order to promote safer and more reliable automation infrastructures. Initially he specialized in design and development of Industrial Control Systems(ICS), by focusing on monitoring and control of SCADA and DCS networks. However after realizing the importance of the industrial cyber security, he later focused towards the threat vectors of advanced attacks in these environments and framing mitigation strategies. He holds a Masters in Technology (Communication Electronics) from Department of Electronics, Cochin University of Science and Technology, India and another Masters in Science (Solid State Electronics) from University of Kerala, India. He has over 30 years of experience in Automation and Energy Engineering specializing in power system automation and critical infrastructure security. He has authored three more titles viz. Industrial Automation with SCADA, Cyber Security in Industrial Automation and Smart Grid-Concepts to Design. His design interests include Machine Learning and its application in Clinical Diagnostic Support Systems (CDSS). He may be contacted [link removed].

Today, cyberspace has emerged as a domain of its own, in many ways like land, sea and air. Even if a nation is small in land area, low in GDP per capita, low in resources, less important in geopolitics, low in strength of armed forces, it can become a military super power if it is capable of launching a cyber-attack on critical infrastructures of any other nation including superpowers and crumble that nation.

Today, cyberspace has emerged as a domain of its own, in many ways like land, sea and air. Even if a nation is small in land area, low in GDP per capita, low in resources, less important in geopolitics, low in strength of armed forces, it can become a military super power if it is capable of launching a cyber-attack on critical infrastructures of any other nation including superpowers and crumble that nation. In fact cyber space redefining our security assumptions and defense strategies. This book explains the current cyber threat landscape and discusses the strategies being used by governments and corporate sectors to protect Critical Infrastructure (CI) against these threats.
