Abstract: In recent years several attacks on critical systems and industrial control systems have been taking place with an increasing level of difficulty. From a power grid to water treatment plants, the number of incidents increases every year. The evolution of controlling systems has changed from very simple monolithic systems to multiple users and locations systems. Nowadays we can say that information is one of the most valuable tools for corporations. This results that criminals and sovereign States have carried out these attacks. However, the security of these systems is not a priority for the majority of the companies. The purpose of this document is to analyze the critical infrastructure (IC) and industrial control systems (SCI) and the most common causes that have allowed the attack on these systems in recent years. With these information, I ¿m going to create a guideline to increase the protection of these systems. The architectures with DMZ and the security mechanisms such as IDS or IPS that are currently implemented will be reviewed as well. Although small guidelines would reduce the number of incidents greatly, it's never possible to reach full protection in a system. However, critical infrastructures are basic systems for the maintenance of society that should not fail. These infrastructures are companies most vulnerable security value and they should make every effort possible to protect it.
