What is a SCADA Security Tester?

SCADA Security Testers are professionals who assess and ensure the security of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, which are critical for controlling industrial processes and infrastructure. They identify vulnerabilities, conduct penetration tests, and help organizations prevent cyberattacks that could disrupt essential services like electricity, water, or manufacturing. Their work involves understanding both cybersecurity principles and the unique technologies used in industrial control systems.
