Ethernet/IP is an industrial network protocol that adapts the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) to standard Ethernet. CIP is an object-oriented protocol that provides a unified communication architecture for various industrial automation applications, such as control, safety, security, energy, synchronization and motion, information and network management. CIP defines a set of messages and services for interacting with devices and data on the network, as well as a set of device profiles for consistent implementation of automation functions across different products. Ethernet/IP uses the transport and control protocols of standard Ethernet, such as TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3, to define the features and functions for its lower layers. Ethernet/IP also uses UDP to transport I/O messages and supports various network topologies, such as star, linear, ring and wireless. Ethernet/IP is one of the leading industrial protocols in the United States and is widely used in a range of industries, such as factory, hybrid and process. Ethernet/IP is managed by ODVA, Inc., a global trade and standards development organization. References:

RS232 is a physical layer standard for serial communication between two or more devices. It defines the electrical characteristics, timing, and pinout of connectors for serial data transmission. RS232 is widely used in industrial communication devices, such as PLCs, measuring instruments, and network servers. RS232 allows only one master and one slave to communicate on each line, and operates in a full duplex mode. RS232 haslower transmission speed, shorter maximum cable length, and larger voltage swing than later standards such as RS422 and RS485123

One of the trends that has increased the security risks for industrial automation and control systems (IACS) is the integration of these systems with business and enterprise systems, such asenterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution systems (MES), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA). This integration exposes the IACS to the same threats and vulnerabilities that affect the business and enterprise systems, such as malware, denial-of-service attacks, unauthorized access, and data theft. Moreover, the integration also creates new attack vectors and pathways for adversaries to compromise the IACS, such as through remote access, wireless networks, or third-party devices. Therefore, the integration of IACS with business and enterprise systems is a trend that has caused a significant percentage of security vulnerabilities. References: ISA/IEC 62443 Standards to Secure Your Industrial Control System, page 1-2.
