ICS components include controllers, software applications, field devices, and communications devices that work together to monitor and control industrial processes. Controllers are used to monitor and control field devices and include programmable logic controllers (PLCs), distributed control systems (DCSs), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. Other components include field devices that are sensors and actuators connected to physical processes, and communications devices that allow controllers to communicate with field devices and other systems.
