SCADA is an old term, older than twenty years, used for defining systems that acquires data from industrial networks and / or critical infrastructure networks and process them for operational and security purposes. Its importance is growing simultaneously with the development of technology’s interference in our lives (social life, economical life, etc.). Although they are not defined as SCADA systems, Security dispatches (and their structure) have a lot of similarities with the general architecture of SCADA systems. Taking into consideration the security dispatches, as they are accepted by the actual Romanian law, we will draw a parallel between them and SCADA architecture, identifying the similarities and the differences between them, and also the points where some changes could be made.
