Industrial control systems sound impressive, but in reality, they are just a combination of hardware and software aimed at making machines operate according to our intentions. Whenever networks are involved, security issues are always present. Stop clinging to the “five-layer architecture”; today we will explore how many security vulnerabilities are hidden within these seemingly robust … Read more
Free for commercial use! A low-code visual development platform for industrial web with over 1500 components. Provocative question!!! Can a host computer replace a PLC? Revealing the efficiency boost once DCS is online? In modern industrial automation systems, PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and DCS (Distributed Control System) are two common yet distinct control architectures. So, … Read more

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are automation control systems used in industrial production, manufacturing processes, and facility management, designed to achieve real-time monitoring, control, and optimization of production processes.ICS are core components for achieving automation, improving production efficiency, ensuring safety, and reducing manual intervention. They are widely used in industries such as oil, chemicals, electricity, metallurgy, … Read more
Hello everyone! I am a post-95 who cannot lower my head because the crown will fall off. Today’s content is the result of a “battle” between Pingping and me. The reason for this “battle” is whether the main focus of today’s technical collection should be DCS or PLC. Both are dear to my heart, but … Read more

Some people in certain industries believe that FCS is developed from PLC, while others think FCS is derived from DCS. There are both close connections and essential differences … Read more
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are the core support of modern industrial fields, encompassing various types of control systems, among which the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, Distributed Control System (DCS), Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), and Fieldbus Control System (FCS) are the most critical. These systems are not only widely used in power, water … Read more
With the rapid development of industrial technology, distributed control systems and fieldbus control systems have emerged one after another. In some industries, some people believe that FCS is developed from PLC, while others believe that FCS is developed from DCS. There is a close connection between FCS, PLC, and DCS, yet there are essential differences. … Read more
On January 7, MITRE released the ATT&CK for ICS knowledge base, which mainly introduces the strategies and techniques used by cyber attackers when targeting industrial control systems (ICS), providing a reference for critical infrastructure and other organizations using industrial control systems to assess network risks. Why ICS? First, what is an industrial control system? It … Read more
