Cyber Resiliency Engineering Overview of the Architectural Assessment Process
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the growing capability, expertise and intent of advanced cyber adversaries, it is no longer realistic to assume that one can successfully keep all adversaries out of a system infrastructure. Therefore, architecture and systems engineering must be based on the assumption that systems or components have been or can be compromised, and that missions and business functions must continue to operate in the presence of compromise. Cyber resiliency assessments are intended to identify where, how, and when cyber resiliency techniques can be applied to improve architectural resiliency against advanced cyber threats. The Cyber Resiliency Engineering Framework, as illustrated in Figure 1, provides a way to understand goals and objectives based on this assumption of compromise, and the techniques that can be applied to improve mission resilience against advanced cyber threats.

Achieving Cyber Survivability in a Contested Environment Using a Cyber Moving Target
E cyber threats in a contested environment provide a challenge in protecting operations and critical assets. Traditional cyber protection mechanisms can prove ineffective when facing a motivated, well-resourced adversary. As a result, many mission critical systems remain vulnerable to advanced, targeted cyber attacks despite the significant amount of effort and resources used to secure them. Co...

This paper provides a historical perspective and an overview of the pioneering work that Manfred Morari developed in the area of resiliency for chemical processes. Motivated by unique counter-intuitive examples, we present a review of the early mathematical formulations and solution methods developed by Grossmann and co-workers for quantifying Static Resiliency (Flexibility). We also give a bri...
متن کاملAnalyzing Resiliency of the Smart Grid Communication Architectures under Cyber Attack
Smart grids are susceptible to cyber-attack as a result of new communication, control and computation techniques employed in the grid. In this paper, we characterize and analyze the resiliency of smart grid communication architecture, specifically an RF mesh based architecture, under cyber attacks. We analyze the resiliency of the communication architecture by studying the performance of high-l...
