Why is Graham Interested
Graham explained that he is the "Technical Representative for Online/Offline Computing" for the Physics Div. to a lab-wide cyber-security steering committee. A recent committee topic involved security related to remote access to experimental hardware (Mont brought this up). Questions include what can be controlled, by whom and from where, and what security measures are needed to enable this. Current thinking involves separate secured networks for controls with two-factor security tokens needed to get into these networks, where one factor involves having a piece of hardware in your possession in order to get in. EPICS gateways will be used to supply read access to controls variables, but write access will be restricted.
Graham said a questionnaire will be sent to the four halls concerning remote access in the next month or so.
Organization
- New Controls wiki page links off main Online (Electronics/Trigger/DAQ/Monitoring/Controls) page.
- Mail list halld-controls will be used for all communications.
- See Rachel to get the Controls meeting added to your JLab calendar.
- See the Online task list for a list of controls tasks.
- We will use the Mantis Task Tracker to assign and manage controls tasks.
Future Topics
- Beni needs to describe the gas system and what is needed to control it.
- Chris Keith needs to describe the target control system.
