Special Report: Protect Process Control Systems
2014-10-30 03:39:00| Chemical Processing
In the decade before Stuxnet attacked process control systems in Iran, there were just five known supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) vulnerabilities for all control systems in the world, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team (ICS-CERT). In 2011, the year after Stuxnet, that vulnerability count jumped to more than 215. Last year, it reached 248. No surprise then that Chemical makers are increasingly focusing on protecting their process control systems from intrusion both from the inside and outside. In this Chemical Processing Special Report: Protect Process Control Systems, we take a look at: How to better protect your control system - "Defense in depth" is crucial, and new and maturing technologies may help Cyber Security Challenges - learn about countermeasures to protect control systems Case Study: A vulnerability assessment reveals critical gaps in the security of a natural gas pipeline How to mitigate security risks in legacy process control systems - several steps can help protect against threats and extend the life of legacy equipment Learn how to secure your process control systems - and your plant.

eHandbook: Take the Pressure Off Your Process
2014-10-29 15:53:00| Chemical Processing
When thinking of the processing of chemicals, we think of any activity including storing, using, handling, manufacturing, or moving chemicals at a site, and any combination of these activities. A common state in many of these activities is the flow - or rate - at which the chemicals are moving through a process. Accurately measuring flow can be a challenge for many chemical processors since so many factors can influence the chemical properties and subsequently the rate of flow. In this Chemical Processing Pressure eHandbook, we discuss considerations for flow management including: Pressure transmitters - how noise can pinpoint process problems The use of orifice plates - how insufficient flow conditioning often undermines measurement accuracy Robust Inferential Sensors - easier-to-develop-and-maintain sensors offer significant benefits for chemical processes Download your copy of this Chemical Processing Pressure eHandbook now.

Oct. 26--About this investigation: Scripps Treasure Coast Newspapers spent a month researching federal, state and county campaign finance and lobbyist databases for spending by All Aboard Florida, its parent companies, Florida East Coast Industries and funds managed by Fortress Investment Group. The investigation found AAF-related companies and officials spent more than $3.5 million on campaign contributions and lobbying fees at the state and national level in the last five years.
