SCADA and Me is an educational book about a system that impacts our daily lives. This system is called SCADA (Supervisory, Control, and Data Acquisition). SCADA systems are crucial to keeping facilities safely running in areas such as nuclear power, water filtration, electrical power, large scale manufacturing and other areas often identified as critical infrastructure.
This book educates children on an important technological topic that impacts the world around us but also contains satirical and humorous references aimed at educating people in management. Just because a topic is important does not mean it needs to be complex. SCADA and Me is a great book to excite children on the tech topic of SCADA and industrial engineering while helping management grasp the challenging topic of SCADA cybersecurity.
