It is a modernization of power distribution systems, and the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) is one of the means. Consequences include larger integration and larger connectivity, which lead to the power automation systems facing a whole new set of information security threats than before. It will be impossible to prevent all possible incidents from occurring. Therefore, the ability to appropriately prepare for, detect, and respond to, information security incidents, is of great importance. As a critical infrastructure the power industry is an attractive target for hackers. The threats are ever-changing, hence the industry needs to be prepared for the unexpected. Resilience engineering concerns adaptation to changes and disturbances and offers valuable principles and practices to the power industry in managing the unexpected. This paper investigates to which degree the power industry aligns with the principles of resilience engineering and suggests future steps to be taken in order to improve resilience towards information security incidents. It is based on a case study where several large distribution system operators have been interviewed regarding their information security incident management process.","PeriodicalId":159306,"journal":{"name":"2013 Africon","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130293791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of the security issues that are in the cloud have existed since the advent of the Internet. These issues are escalated in a cloud environment due to its distributed nature, multi-tenancy and the sensitive and large amount of data that is transmitted over the Internet and hosted by third parties. The security aspect that this paper focuses on concerns digital forensics. The cloud spans over multi-jurisdictions. As such, service providers hosting the data that may be required for digital forensic investigation may be reluctant to comply with foreign law enforcement agencies. Even if they comply, this may be a costly and time-consuming exercise, given the amount of hosted data that belongs to multi-tenants. In this paper we present a forensic readiness model that makes use of a Forensic Service hosted in the cloud. The model is aimed at minimizing costs associated with conducting a digital forensic investigation in a distributed cloud environment. The scope of this paper however is limited to examining the impact that a forensic readiness mechanism put in place may have on other hosted cloud services. Preliminary results have shown a negligible effect in performance of cloud services by a having our proposed digital forensic readiness mechanism in place.","PeriodicalId":159306,"journal":{"name":"2013 Africon","volume":"1975 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130156075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
