Abstract: A system for restricting physical access to at least one component process control system component has a locking device that is integrated with process control system security administration data. The locking device accesses the process control system security data when authenticating a user. Upon authentication of a user for physical access to the particular process control component, the user may directly access the component for which the user is authorized. The system provides tracking of all authenticated users and attempts to access the various control system components.

Abstract: A hardened inductive device and systems and methods for protecting the inductive device from impact is provided. The inductive device is hardened with protective coating and/or an armor steel housing. The hardened inductive device is protected from impact by an object such as a bullet and leakage of dielectric fluid is prevented. Acoustic and vibration sensors are provided to detect the presence and impact, respectively, of an object in relation to the inductive device housing. The measurements of the acoustic and vibration sensors are compared to thresholds for sending alarms to the network control center and initiating shut-down and other sequences to protect the active part. The acoustic sensor results are utilized to determine the location of origin of the projectile.
