A collection of plugins that extend MITRE Caldera™ to the Operational Technology (OT) environment.

It is built on the MITRE ATT&CK® for ICS framework.

This repository contains all the Caldera for OT plugins as git submodules. As described in each individual plugin README, it is also possible to git clone a specific protocol plugin directly into the Caldera plugins directory, following the "Installation" guidance.

To install all the Caldera for OT plugins, use the recursive flag while cloning this repository:

git clone https://github.com/mitre/caldera-ot.git --recursive

Note, that after performing the git clone, you will still need to:

1. Ensure the plugin(s) of interest are moved into the caldera/plugins directory of your caldera instance
2. Enable the plugin(s) by adding their names to the conf/local.yml or conf/default.yml (if running Caldera in insecure mode)

For example,

- bacnet
- dnp3
- modbus
- profinet
- iec61850

The OT plugins can also be setup individually:

• bacnet
• dnp3
• modbus
• profinet
• iec61850

Using the IEC 61850 plugin requires the additional step of installing the plugin's payloads by following these steps:

1. Download the appropriate compiled payload from the Releases section of the iec61850-payloads repository.
2. Save the downloaded payload file(s) in the caldera/plugins/iec61850/payloads directory of your Caldera installation.

The Caldera for OT plugins unify and expose open-source OT protocol libraries in the form of protocol specific plugins:

• bacnet - for the Building Automation and Control Networks (BACnet) protocol
• dnp3 - for the Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
• modbus - for the Modbus protocol
• profinet - for the Profinet protocol - Basic Discovery and Configuration Protocol (DCP) only
• iec61850 - for the IEC 61850 series of communication protocols - Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) only

Each plugin contains the following documentation:

• High-level README.md
• Source code specific README.md (located under /src)
• Caldera Field Manual documentation (located under /docs)

The Caldera for OT plugins enable adversary emulation in the OT environment, which supports traditional Caldera use cases. For example, training and testing of operators and defenses.
