Digital computer hardware for automated data processing systems; Proprietary software. Services on design of nuclear facilities and performance of research and development works in the area of nuclear power use. 23

24 Achievements and Prospects in I&C

25 NPP I&C Cyber-Security Competence center of JSC Rosenergoatom Concern for NPP I&C cyber-security has been established at JSC VNIIAES. According to the order of JSC Rosenergoatom Concern, the new center has been established in order to have a single system for identification and prevention of cyber-attacks on NPP I&C, and to maintain continuous availability of resources and tools for the response to cyber-attacks on NPPs. One of the tasks of the center is to develop the industrial and R&D policies with regard to NPP I&C cyber-security, and to develop and implement the corresponding technologies and information security tools at nuclear power plants. 25

26 NPP I&C Cyber-Security (2) Specialists of JSC RASU participated in the working group for NPP I&C cyber-security engineering and design aspects. The report on NPP I&C Computer Security Design covered such design aspects as: Threat model Intruder model Information security zone model Architectural solutions for information security. 26

27 NPP I&C Cyber-Security In 2016, an agreement on scientific and technical cooperation was signed between JSC VNIIAES and JSC Kaspersky Laboratory. The companies agreed to develop their partnership in the area of I&C cyber-security assurance at nuclear facilities. 27

28 Application of Wireless Technologies at NPPs In summer 2016, a research workshop was held by JSC Rusatom Automated Control Systems (affiliate of Rosatom State Corporation) under the authority of IAEA. Representatives of 10 countries took part in the workshop, including USA, Italy, Japan, India, Korea, Hungary, Egypt. Experts who came to Moscow represented major companies involved in NPP I&C design and different research centers, institutes and national agencies. During the first research phase, the experts analyze the current situation, assess opportunities and risks, predict trends and pay special attention to the issues of cyber-security and reliability of systems and equipment which use various types of wireless technologies under different environmental conditions and man-made factors. 28

29 JSC VNIIAES Tests New Hardware with the help of Simulator In November 2015, JSC VNIIAES started the tests on the simulator of instrumentation and control (I&C) systems and equipment for Novovoronezh NPP Unit 6. 29

30 Best Production Efficiency Improvement Project in the Industry According to the results of 2015, the industrywide project Development of I&C Equipment Manufacturing Flow for Belarusian NPP implemented by NIIIS (Nizhniy Novgorod) was declared the best production efficiency improvement project in the industry. 30
