High-risk vulnerabilities in industrial control network security emerge in an endless stream. At present, the types of industrial control security vulnerabilities show diversified characteristics. For industrial control systems that require high business continuity and real-time performance, whether they are used to cause business interruption, obtain control rights, or steal sensitive production data, they will cause extreme damage to the industrial control system. Big security threat. At the same time, due to the slow progress in the repair of industrial control vulnerabilities, the number of new industrial control vulnerabilities worldwide is significantly higher than the number of repaired vulnerabilities. The reason is that, on the one hand, the priority of the vendor's vulnerability repair work is low, and it is also restricted by the software development iteration cycle; on the other hand, it is the enthusiasm of industrial enterprises to update and install patches in a timely manner in order to maintain business continuity.
