1   Scope

IEC TS 62351‑100‑6 , which is a technical specification, is part of the IEC 62351 suite of standards, which describes test cases for interoperability conformance testing of data and communication security for Substation Automation Systems [SAS] and telecontrol systems which implement IEC TS 62351‑6. The tests described in this part do not evaluate the security of the implementation. Thus, citing conformance to this part does not imply that any particular security level has been achieved by the corresponding product, or by the system in which it is used. The goal of this part of is to enable interoperability by providing a standard method of testing protocol implementations, but it does not guarantee the full interoperability of devices. It is expected that using this specification during testing will minimize the risk of non-interoperability. Additional testing and assurance measures will be required to verify that a particular implementation of IEC TC 62351‑6 has correctly implemented all the security functions and that they can be assured to be present in all delivered products. This topic is covered in other IEC standards, for example . The scope of this document is to specify common available procedures and definitions for conformance and/or interoperability testing of , the , and also their recommendations over for profiles including TCP/IP and for profiles including MMS. These are the security extensions for and derivatives to enable unambiguous and standardized evaluation of IEC TS 62351‑6 and its companion standards protocol implementatio...
