SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system is widely used for remote monitoring and control throughout the domestic industry. Due to a recent breach of security on SCADA systems, such as Stuxnet, the need of correctly established secure certification of a control system is growing. Currently, EDSA-CRT (Embedded Device Security Assurance-Communication Robustness Test), which tests the ability to provide core services properly in a normal/abnormal network protocol, is only focused on the testing of IP-based protocols such as IP, ARP, TCP, etc. Thus, in this paper, we propose test requirements for DNP3 protocol based on EDSA-CRT. Our analysis show that the specific test cases provide plentiful evidences that DNP3 should follow based on its functional requirements. As a result, we propose 33 specific test case for DNP3 protocol.

Industrial control systems(ICS) are widely used in various industrial area and critical infrastructure. To mitigate security threats on ICS, the security assurance test for industrial control devices has been introduced and operating. The test includes testing of the security function of the device itself and testing of communication robustness. In this paper, we describe the security requirements of EDSA, Achilles, and Korea's TTA standard(security requirements for ICS). And also, we analyzed the characteristics of communication robustness test(CRT) of each certification. CRT verifies the device's operation of essential function while transmitting fuzzing and stress packets. Existing test methods are mostly focused on the embedded devices and are difficult to apply to various devices. We propose a method to test communication robustness which reflect the characteristics of control H/W, control S/W, field devices and network devices in ICS. In the future, we will apply the proposed communication robustness test to actual products and present solutions for arising issues.
