Power systems management and associated information exchange - Data and communications security - Part 3: Communication network and system security - Profiles including TCP/IP

This part of IEC 62351 specifies how to provide confidentiality, integrity protection, and message level authentication for SCADA and telecontrol protocols that make use of TCP/IP as a message transport layer when cyber-security is required.
Although there are many possible solutions to secure TCP/IP, the particular scope of this part is to provide security between communicating entities at either end of a TCP/IP connection within the end communicating entities. The use and specification of intervening external security devices (e.g. “bump-in-the-wire”) are considered out-of-scope.
This part of IEC 62351 specifies how to secure TCP/IP-based protocols through constraints on the specification of the messages, procedures, and algorithms of Transport Layer Security (TLS) (defined in RFC 5246) so that they are applicable to the telecontrol environment of the IEC. TLS is applied to protect the TCP communication. It is intended that this standard be referenced as a normative part of other IEC standards that have the need for providing security for their TCP/IP-based protocol. However, it is up to the individual protocol security initiatives to decide if this standard is to be referenced.
This part of IEC 62351 reflects the security requirements of the IEC power systems management protocols. Should other standards bring forward new requirements, this standard may need to be revised.

2 Normative references
Replace the existing reference IEC TS 62351-9 with the following new reference:
IEC 62351-9, Power systems management and associated information exchange – Data and
communications security – Part 9: Cyber security key management for power system
equipment
Replace the existing reference IEC/ISO 9594-8 with the following new reference:

Interconnection – The Directory – Part 8: Public-key and attribute certificate frameworks
4.1 Operational requirements affecting the use of TLS in the telecontrol environment
Replace the existing text of the fifth paragraph of 4.1 with the following new text:
Note that TLS utilizes X.509 certificates (see also ISO/IEC 9594-8 or RFC 5280) for
authentication. In the context of this specification the term certificates always relates to
public-key certificates (in contrast to attribute certificates).

4.2 Security threats countered
Replace the existing text of the second paragraph of 4.2 with the following new text:
TCP/IP and the security specifications in this part of IEC 62351 cover only to the
communication transport layers (OSI layers 4 and lower). This part of IEC 62351 does not
cover security functionality specific for the communication application layers (OSI layers 5 and
above) or application-to-application security.
NOTE The application of TLS as profiled in this document supports the protection of information sent over the
TLS protected connection.
4.3 Attack methods countered
Replace the existing text of the first bullet point of Subclause 4.3 by the following new text:
– Man-in-the-middle: This threat is countered through the use of a Message Authentication
Code mechanism or digital signatures specified within this document.
5.1 Deprecation of cipher suites
Add the following new text before the fourth paragraph of 5.1:
The support of SHA-1 is intended for backward compatibility. SHA-256 shall be supported and
is the preferred signature algorithm to be used.
SHA-1 is no longer recognized as secure with respect collision resistance and it is therefore
strongly recommended to perform a risk assessment before using this algorithm. If SHA-256
cannot be used, it is also recommended that additional security measures be taken. The
usage of SHA-1 will be disallowed in the next edition of this standard.
NOTE Recommendations regarding hash signature algorithms are reviewed constantly and can be found in NIST
SP800-57, BNetzA (BSI), or the NSA Suite B.
Replace the existing text of the fourth paragraph of 5.1 by the following new text:
The list of disallowed suites includes, but is not limited to:
– TLS_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL
– TLS_RSA_ WITH_NULL_MD5
5.2 Negotiation of Versions
Add the following new text at the end of Subclause 5.2:
The proposal of versions TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 should raise a security warning ("warning:
insecure TLS version"). Implementations should provide a mechanism for announcing security
warnings.
5.3 Session Resumption
Replace the existing text of Subclause 5.3 with the following new text:
Session resumption in TLS allows for the resumption of a session based on the session ID
connected with a dedicated (existing) master secret, which will result in a new session key.
This minimizes the performance impact of asymmetric handshakes, and can be done during a
running session or after a session has ended within a defined time period (TLS suggests not
more than 24 hours in RFC 5280). This specification follows this suggestion. Session
resumption should be performed at least every 24 hours for active sessions or not later than
24 hours for sessions that have ended. The actual parameters should be defined based on

risk assessment from the referencing standard. Session resumption is expected to be more
frequent than session renegotiation.
Implementations claiming conformance to this standard shall specify that the symmetric
session keys shall be renewed within the maximum time period. This resumption maximum
time constraint is expected to be specified in a PIXIT of the referencing standard. The
maximum time period for session resumption shall be aligned with the CRL refresh time.
Session resumption intervals shall be configurable, so long as they are within the specified
maximum time period.
Clients shall initiate session resumption using the ClientHello message. A server initiated
update of session parameter shall use the HelloRequest message to trigger the client to
