Historically, engineers defined SCADA as a complete hardware and software installation spanning vast geographic distances. However, modern factory automation and process control paradigms have altered this definition. Today, professionals often view SCADA as the central software suite running on high-performance operator workstations. Nevertheless, the complete SCADA ecosystem still encompasses field instruments, communication networks, and supervisory controllers.

In the modern landscape of factory automation, the convergence of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) has created unprecedented connectivity. While this evolution drives efficiency, it simultaneously exposes Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) to sophisticated cyber threats. Protecting these critical control systems is no longer optional; it is a fundamental requirement for operational continuity.
