This book introduces a cross-layer design to achieve security and resilience for CPSs (Cyber-Physical Systems). The authors interconnect various technical tools and methods to capture the different properties between cyber and physical layers. Part II of this book bridges the gap between cryptography and control-theoretic tools. It develops a bespoke crypto-control framework to address security and resiliency in control and estimation problems where the outsourcing of computations is possible. Part III of this book bridges the gap between game theory and control theory and develops interdependent impact-aware security defense strategies and cyber-aware resilient control strategies. With the rapid development of smart cities, there is a growing need to integrate the physical systems, ranging from large-scale infrastructures to small embedded systems, with networked communications. The integration of the physical and cyber systems forms Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), enabling the use of digital information and control technologies to improve the monitoring, operation, and planning of the systems. Despite these advantages, they are vulnerable to cyber-physical attacks, which aim to damage the physical layer through the cyber network. This book also uses case studies from autonomous systems, communication-based train control systems, cyber manufacturing, and robotic systems to illustrate the proposed methodologies. These case studies aim to motivate readers to adopt a cross-layer system perspective toward security and resilience issues of large and complex systems and develop domain-specific solutions to address CPS challenges. A comprehensive suite of solutions to a broad range of technical challenges in secure and resilient control systems are described in this book (many of the findings in this book are useful to anyone working in cybersecurity). Researchers, professors, and advanced-level students working in computer science and engineering will find this book useful as a reference or secondary text. Industry professionals and military workers interested in cybersecurity will also want to purchase this book.

Smart manufacturing environments are revolutionizing the industrial sector by integrating advanced technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and robotics, to achieve higher levels of efficiency, productivity, and safety. However, the increasing complexity and interconnectedness of these systems also introduce new security challenges that must be addressed to ensure the safety of human workers and the integrity of manufacturing processes. Key topics include risk assessment methodologies, secure communication protocols, and the development of standard specifications to guide the design and implementation of HCPS. Recent research highlights the importance of adopting a multi-layered approach to security, encompassing physical, network, and application layers. Furthermore, the integration of AI and machine learning techniques enables real-time monitoring and analysis of system vulnerabilities, as well as the development of adaptive security measures. Artificial Intelligence Solutions for Cyber-Physical Systems discusses such best practices and frameworks as NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISO/IEC 27001, and IEC 62443 of advanced technologies. It presents strategies and methods to mitigate risks and enhance security, including cybersecurity frameworks, secure communication protocols, and access control measures. The book also focuses on the design, implementation, and management of secure HCPS in smart manufacturing environments. It covers a wide range of topics, including risk assessment, security architecture, data privacy, and standard specifications, for HCPS. The book highlights the importance of securing communication protocols, the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning in threat detection and mitigation, and the need for robust cybersecurity frameworks in the context of smart manufacturing.

ISBN: 3030832368

This book comprises a set of chapters that introduce various topics pertinent to novel approaches towards enhancing cyber-physical measures for increased security and resilience levels in control systems. The unifying theme of these approaches lies in the utilization of knowledge and models of the physical systems, rather than an attempt to reinvigorate conventional IT-based security measures. The contributing authors present perspectives on network security, game theory, and control, as well as views on how these disciplines can be combined to design resilient, safe, and secure control systems. The book explores how attacks in different forms, such as false data injections and denial-of-service can be very harmful, and may not be detected unless the security measures exploit the physical models. Several applications are discussed, power systems being considered most thoroughly. Because of its interdisciplinary nature—techniques from systems control, game theory, signal processing and computer science all make contributions—Security and Resilience of Control Systems will be of interest to academics, practitioners and graduate students with a broad spectrum of interests.

In an uncertain and complex environment, to ensure secure and stable operations of large-scale power systems is one of the biggest challenges that power engineers have to address today. Traditionally, power system operations and decision-making in controls are based on power system computations of physical models describing the behavior of power systems. Largely, physical models are constructed according to some assumptions and simplifications, and such is the case with power system models. However, the complexity of power system stability problems, along with the system's inherent uncertainties and nonlinearities, can result in models that are impractical or inaccurate. This calls for adaptive or deep-learning algorithms to significantly improve current control schemes that solve decision and control problems. Cyberphysical Infrastructures in Power Systems: Architectures and Vulnerabilities provides an extensive overview of CPS concepts and infrastructures in power systems with a focus on the current state-of-the-art research in this field. Detailed classifications are pursued highlighting existing solutions, problems, and developments in this area. - Gathers the theoretical preliminaries and fundamental issues related to CPS architectures. - Provides coherent results in adopting control and communication methodologies to critically examine problems in various units within smart power systems and microgrid systems. - Presents advanced analysis under cyberphysical attacks and develops resilient control strategies to guarantee safe operation at various power levels.
