IEC 62351 is a standard developed by WG15 of
IECTC57. This is developed for handling the security of TC 57 series of protocols including
IEC 60870-5 series,
IEC 60870-6 series,
IEC 61850 series,
IEC 61970 series &
IEC 61968 series. The different security objectives include authentication of data transfer through
digital signatures, ensuring only authenticated access, prevention of
eavesdropping, prevention of playback and
spoofing, and
intrusion detection.
Standard details
IEC 62351-1 — Introduction to the standard
IEC 62351-2 — Glossary of terms
IEC 62351-3 — Security for any profiles including
TCP/IP.
IEC 62351-7 — Security through network and system management.
Defines
Management Information Base (MIBs) that are specific for the power industry, to handle network and system management through
SNMP based methods.
IEC 62351-8 — Role-based access control.
Covers the access control of users and automated agents to data objects in power systems by means of role-based access control (
RBAC).
IEC 62351-9 — Key Management
Describes the correct and safe usage of safety-critical parameters, e.g. passwords, encryption keys.
Covers the whole life cycle of cryptographic information (enrollment, creation, distribution, installation, usage, storage and removal).
Methods for algorithms using asymmetric cryptography
