Abstract:
A method for monitoring control systems, a device for monitoring control systems and a corresponding computer program product, wherein the control system has at least one communication network and at least two communication end points connected to the communication network, which communication end points exchange data via the communication network, wherein the data exchanged between the communication end points is acquired and after comparing the currently acquired data with previously acquired data, an alert is raised when new data is acquired. As a result, a monitoring is provided which recognizes errors particularly quickly and reliably in the context of communication in control systems, in particular in industrial control systems. These errors may subsequently be coupled with a quality management to determine whether quality losses correlate with such recognized errors.

Claim (Index 7):
The method as in  claim 6 , wherein the data types include at least one combination of communication parameters selected from the group consisting of:\n a hardware address of the communication end point involved in the communication; an IP address of the communication end point involved in the communication; an application protocol with which the data are exchanged; a hardware address of the communication end point involved in the communication combined with the application protocol with which the data are exchanged; an IP address of the communication end point involved in the communication combined with the application protocol with which the data are exchanged; a combination of the hardware addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication; a combination of the IP addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication; a combination of the hardware addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication and the application protocol with which the data are exchanged; a combination of the IP addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication and the application protocol with which the data are exchanged; a combination of the hardware address and the IP address of the communication end point involved in the communication; a combination of the hardware address and the message of the communication end point involved in the communication; a combination of the IP address and the message of the communication end point involved in the communication; a combination of the hardware addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication and the message; and a combination of the IP addresses of the communication end points involved in the communication and the message, wherein the alert is raised upon acquisition of a new data type.
