5 Overview on security technology design for classified protection of cybersecurity
5.1 Framework of security technology design for general classified protection
The security technology design for classified protection of cybersecurity includes the design of security environment of systems at all levels and the design of their security interconnection, as shown in Figure 1. The security environment of system at each level consists of security computing environment, security area boundary, security communication network and/or security management center of the corresponding level. The classified system interconnection consists of security interconnection components and security management center for cross classified system.
Figure 1 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of cybersecurity
Clauses 6 to 11 of this standard put forward corresponding technical requirements of design for each part of Figure 1 (except for the requirements of design for security environment of Level 5 network). Annex A gives the design of access control mechanism, and Annex B gives an example of the design for security environment of Level 3 system. In addition, Annex C gives the technical requirements of big data design.
When designing the security environment of classified system, the classified system may be further divided into different subsystems in combination with the system's own business requirements, and then the security environment of each subsystem can be designed after determining the level of each subsystem.
5.2 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of cloud computing
Combining the hierarchical framework of cloud computing functions and the security characteristics of cloud computing, the protection technology framework of security design for cloud computing is constructed, which consists of cloud user layer, access layer, service layer, resource layer, hardware facility layer and management layer (cross-layer function). In this framework, the center refers to the security management center, and the triple protection includes security computing environment, security area boundary and security communication network, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of cloud computing
Users can securely access the security computing environment provided by cloud service providers through the security communication network by means of direct network access, API interface access and WEB service access, among which the security of the user terminal itself is beyond the scope of this part. Security computing environment includes resource layer security and service layer security. The resource layer is divided into physical resources and virtual resources. It is necessary to clarify the technical requirements of security design for physical resources and the requirements for security design for virtual resources, among which the physical and environmental security are beyond the scope of this part. The service layer is the realization of the services provided by cloud service providers, including the software components needed to realize the services. According to different service modes, cloud service providers and cloud tenants have different security responsibilities. The security design for service layer needs to specify the technical requirements of security design within the resources controlled by cloud service providers, and the cloud service providers may provide security technology and security protection capabilities for cloud tenants by providing security interfaces and security services. The system management, security management and security audit of cloud computing environment are under the unified control of the security management center. Combined with this framework, the security technology design for different levels of cloud computing environments can be performed, and the security design for different levels of cloud tenants (business systems) is supported by the service layer security.
5.3 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of mobile interconnection
The reference architecture of mobile interconnection system security protection is shown in Figure 3, in which the security computing environment consists of three security domains: core business domain, DMZ domain and remote access domain; the security area boundary consists of mobile interconnection system area boundary, mobile terminal area boundary, traditional computing terminal area boundary, core server area boundary and DMZ area boundary; and the security communication network consists of wireless networks built by mobile operators or users themselves.
a) Core business domain
The core business domain is the core area of the mobile interconnection system, which is composed of mobile terminals, traditional computing terminals and servers to complete the processing, maintenance, etc. of mobile interconnection services. The core business domain shall focus on ensuring the operating system security, application security, network communication security and device access security of servers, computing terminals and mobile terminals in the domain.
b) DMZ domain
The DMZ domain is the external service area of the mobile interconnection system, where servers and applications for external services, such as Web servers and database servers, are deployed. This area is connected with the Internet, and access requests from the Internet shall be routed through this area to access the core business domain. The DMZ domain shall focus on ensuring the security of server operating systems and applications.
Figure 3 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of mobile interconnection
c) Remote access domain
The remote access domain consists of mobile terminals that can be controlled by the mobile interconnection system operators and users and remotely access the network of the mobile interconnection system operators and users through VPN and other technical means, so as to complete telecommuting, application system management and control and other services. The remote access domain shall focus on ensuring the security of remote mobile terminal operation, access to mobile interconnection application system and communication network.
This standard classifies computing nodes in mobile interconnection system into two categories: mobile computing nodes and traditional computing nodes. The mobile computing nodes mainly include the mobile terminals in remote access domain and core business domain, while the traditional computing nodes mainly include the traditional computing terminals and servers in core business domain. The security design for traditional computing nodes and their boundaries may refer to the general security design requirements, and the security design for computing environment, area boundary and communication network of mobile interconnection mentioned below are specific to the mobile computing nodes.
5.4 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of internet of things
Combined with the characteristics of the internet of things (IoT) system, the triple protection system of security computing environment, security area boundary and security communication network is constructed with support of the security management center. The framework of security protection design for IoT system supported by the security management center is shown in Figure 4. Both the sensor layer and application layer of the IoT are composed of the computing environment for completing the computing tasks and the area boundaries connecting the network communication domains.
Figure 4 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of IoT system
a) Security computing environment
It includes relevant components in the sensor layer and application layer of the IoT system that store and process the information of the grading system and implement security policies, such as objects, computing nodes and sensing control devices in the sensor layer, and computing resources and application services in the application layer.
b) Security area boundary
It includes the security computing environment boundary of the IoT system and the relevant components that realize connections and implement security policies between the security computing environment and the security communication network, such as the boundary between the sensor layer and the network layer, and the boundary between the network layer and the application layer.
c) Security communication network
It includes the relevant components that perform information transmission and implement security policies between the security computing environments and security areas of the IoT system, such as the communication network of the network layer and the communication network between the security computing environments in the sensor layer and the application layer.
d) Security management center
It includes a platform that implements unified management of the security policies as well as the security mechanisms on the security computing environment, security area boundary and security communication network of the IoT system, including three parts: system management, security management and audit management. Only the security environments of the Level 2 and above are designed with security management centers.
5.5 Framework of security technology design for classified protection of industrial control
For the industrial control system, it is partitioned according to the business nature of the protected object, and the classified protection of cybersecurity is designed according to the technical characteristics of the functional layers. The framework of security technology design for classified protection of industrial control system is shown in Figure 5. The security technology design for classified protection of industrial control system is based on the triple protection system of computing environment, area boundary and communication network with support of the security management center. It is a layered and partitioned architecture, and is designed in combination with the characteristics of complex and diverse bus protocols, high real-time requirements, limited node computing resources, high device reliability requirements, short failure recovery time, and no influence of security mechanism on real-time of the industrial control system, so as to realize reliable, controllable and manageable system security interconnection, area boundary security protection and computing environment security.
The industrial control system is divided into four layers, that is, Layers 0~3 are within the scope of classified protection of industrial control system and are the areas covered by the design framework. The industrial control system is horizontally divided into security areas to form different security protection areas according to the importance, real-time, relevance, degree of influence on field controlled device, function range and asset attributes of the business in the industrial control system. The system shall all be placed in the corresponding security area, and the specific partition shall be subject to the actual situation of the industrial field (the partitioning methods include but are not limited to: Layers 0~2 form a security area, Layers 0~1 form a security area, there are different security areas in the same layer, etc.)
The partitioning principle is based on the real-time nature of business systems or their functional modules, the users, main functions, device usage places, the relationship between business systems, WAN communication modes and the degree of influence on the industrial control system. For additional security and reliability requirements, the main security areas may be further divided into sub-areas according to the operating functions. Dividing the device into different areas can effectively establish the "in-depth protection" strategy. The control functions of each system with the same functions and security requirements are divided into different security areas, and the network segment address is assigned to each security function area in accordance with the principle of convenient management and control.
The design framework is enhanced level by level, but the protection categories are the same, only with different strength of security protection design. The protection categories are: security computing environment, including the relevant components for storing and processing information and implementing security policies in Layers 0~3 of industrial control system; security area boundary, including the security computing environment boundary, as well as the relevant components that realize connections and implement security policies between security computing environment and security communication network; security communication network, including the relevant components that perform information transmission and implement security policies between security computing environment and network security area; security management center, including the platform that implements unified management of the security policies as well as the security mechanisms on the security computing environment, security area boundary and security communication network of the classified system, which consists of three parts: system management, security management and audit management.
Note 1: According to IEC/TS 62443-1-1, the industrial control system is divided into the following functional layers: Layer 0 (field device layer), Layer 1 (field control layer), Layer 2 (process monitoring layer), Layer 3 (production management layer), and Layer 4 (enterprise resource layer).
Note 2: An information security area may include several sub-areas of different levels.
Note 3: The vertical partitioning is subject to the actual situation of the industrial field (the partitioning in the figure is exemplary), and the partitioning methods include but are not limited to: Layers 0~2 form a security area, Layers 0~1 form a security area, etc.
