Geospatial Cyber Security • • Geo-Cyber Security Energy/Utilities/Smart. Grid Force Protection/Emergency Management Geospatial Location Intelligence
Geo-Cyber Security • Traditional virtual network maps vs. geo-enabled maps • Physical locations of Cyber assets and sources of attack are important for the Common Operating Picture (COP) • Offensive and defensive cyber analysis • Risk assessments • Cyber forensics
Geo-Cyber Security Incident Tracking
Energy Control Rooms, Control Systems, Communications, and Cyber Security (C 4)
Energy/Utility/Smart Grid Geo-Cyber Issues • Smart. Grid and Control System assets are Geospatially distributed • Smart Grid assets can be tracked/displayed on a map now; near-real time asset tracking on a map is TBR • The “Smart Grid” is not “Cyber Smart” yet • Open standards and modern communications technology are needed for increased interoperability • Engineering Control systems are different than Corporate IT systems
Force Protection/Emergency Management and Geo-Cyber Security
Force Protection/Emergency Management and Geo-Cyber Issues • Many of these systems are proprietary, web/data base applications with no Geospatial capability • For those applications with Geospatial capability, many Geo-enabled features can be integrated: • Location based services for fixed and mobile assets • Near-real time Geo-position/status updates • Mobile asset Geo-Cyber example
Geospatial Location Intelligence
Geospatial Location Intelligence • Geospatial Information Interoperability Exploitation Portable (GIIEP) program • Provide “Blue Force Tracking” like capability for air/ground/marine/space assets • Geo-enabled collaboration capabilities such as white boarding, graphics dissemination, data distribution, chat, video and Common Operational Picture (COP) • Cyber-certified (ATO and CON) application and supports PDA’s, Smart. Phones and new technologies such as i. Pad & Android Pad.
