Power systems management and associated information exchange - Data and communications security - Part 4: Profiles including MMS and derivatives

IEC 62351:2018 specifies security requirements both at the transport layer and at the application layer. While IEC TS 62351-4:2007 primarily provided some limited support at the application layer for authentication during handshake for the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) based applications, this document provides support for extended integrity and authentication both for the handshake phase and for the data transfer phase. It provides for shared key management and data transfer encryption at the application layer and it provides security end-to-end (E2E) with zero or more intermediate entities. While IEC TS 62351-4:2007 only provides support for systems based on the MMS, i.e. systems using an Open Systems Interworking (OSI) protocol stack, this document provides support for application protocols using other protocol stacks, e.g. an Internet protocol suite. This support is extended to protect application protocols using XML encoding. This extended security at the application layer is referred to as E2E-security. In addition to E2E security, this part of IEC 62351 also provides mapping to environmental protocols carrying the security related information. Only OSI and XMPP environments are currently considered.

Gestion des systèmes de puissance et échanges d’informations associés - Sécurité des communications des données - Partie 4 : Profils comprenant le MMS et ses dérivés

IEC 62351:2018 spécifie les exigences de sécurité concernant à la fois la couche transport et la couche application. Alors que l’IEC TS 62351-4:2007 apportait principalement une aide limitée concernant la couche application pour l’authentification lors de l’établissement de liaison des applications fondées sur la messagerie MMS (manufacturing message specification), le présent document fournit également une assistance quant à l’extension de l’intégrité et l’authentification lors des phases d’établissement de liaison et de transfert de données. Il pourvoit à la gestion essentielle partagée et au chiffrement de transfert de données pour la couche application et assure la sécurité bout-à-bout (E2E - end-to-end) avec zéro entité intermédiaire ou plus. Alors que l’IEC TS 62351-4:2007 apporte une assistance uniquement pour les systèmes fondés sur la MMS, c’est-à-dire les systèmes utilisant une pile de protocoles OSI (open systems interworking - interconnexion de systèmes ouverts), le présent document fournit également une assistance quant aux protocoles d’application utilisant d’autres piles de protocoles, par exemple une suite de protocoles Internet (voir 4.1). Cette assistance est étendue afin d’assurer la protection des protocoles d’application utilisant le codage XML. Cette sécurité étendue au niveau de la couche application est appelée sécurité E2E.
En plus de la sécurité E2E, la présente partie de l’IEC 62351 présente également la mise en correspondance avec les protocoles environnementaux comportant les informations concernant la sécurité. Seuls les environnements OSI et XMPP sont actuellement pris en considération.
