چکیده

The attribution of cyber attacks is an important problem. Attribution gives critical infrastructure asset owners and operators legal recourse in the event of attacks and deters potential attacks. This paper discusses attribution techniques along with the associated legal and technical challenges. It presents a proposal for a voluntary network of attributable activity, an important first step towards a more complete attribution methodology for the control systems community.

Attribution of Cyber Attacks on Industrial Control Systems

In order to deter or prosecute for cyber attacks on industrial control systems it is necessary to assign attribution to the attacker and define the type of attack so that international law enforcement agencies or national governments can decide on appropriate recourse. In this paper we identify the current state of the art of attribution in industrial control systems. We highlight the critical ...

Resilient Configuration of Distribution System versus False Data Injection Attacks Against State Estimation

State estimation is used in power systems to estimate grid variables based on meter measurements. Unfortunately, power grids are vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Reducing cyber-attacks against state estimation is necessary to ensure power system safe and reliable operation. False data injection (FDI) is a type of cyber-attack that tampers with measurements. This paper proposes network reconfigurati...

An Effective Attack-Resilient Kalman Filter-Based Approach for Dynamic State Estimation of Synchronous Machine

Kalman filtering has been widely considered for dynamic state estimation in smart grids. Despite its unique merits, the Kalman Filter (KF)-based dynamic state estimation can be undesirably influenced by cyber adversarial attacks that can potentially be launched against the communication links in the Cyber-Physical System (CPS). To enhance the security of KF-based state estimation, in this paper...

An Initial Investigation into Attribution in SCADA Systems

Supervisory control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems play a core role in a nation’s critical infrastructure, overseeing the monitoring and control of systems in electricity, gas supply, logistics services, banks and hospitals. SCADA systems were once separated from other networks and used proprietary communications protocols, hardware and software. Nowadays modern SCADA systems are increasi...

Avoiding Cyber-attacks to DMZ and Capturing Forensics from Intruders Using Honeypots

Nowadays, honeypots are widely used to divert attackers from the original target and keep them busy within a decoy environment. DeMilitarized Zone (DMZ) is an important zone for network administrators, because many of the services to the public network is provided at this zone. Many of the security tools such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems and several other secu...
