However, many of these systems also have stringent security requirements, and security attacks may impair safety. Given a TSN-based distributed architecture, a set of applications with tasks and messages as well as a set of security and redundancy requirements, the authors are interested to synthesise a system configuration such that the real-time, safety and security requirements are upheld. The Timed Efficient Stream Loss-Tolerant Authentication (TESLA) low-resource multicast authentication protocol is used to guarantee the security requirements and redundant disjunct message routes to tolerate link failures. The authors consider that tasks are dispatched using a static cyclic schedule table and that the messages use the time-sensitive traffic class in TSN, which relies on schedule tables (called Gate Control Lists, GCLs) in the network switches. A configuration consists of the schedule tables for tasks as well as the disjoint routes and GCLs for messages. A Constraint Programing-based formulation, which can be used to find an optimal solution with respect to the cost function, is proposed. Additionally, a Simulated Annealing-based metaheuristic, which can find good solution for large test cases, is proposed. The authors evaluate both approaches on several test cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":36881,"journal":{"name":"IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/cps2.12030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121921895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the communication infrastructure significantly facilitates the transmission of vast amounts of data over wide geographical areas, it makes CPICSs vulnerable to cyber-attacks; protecting CPICSs of critical infrastructures from cyber-attacks is crucial and challenging. In order to secure CPICSs, a variety of open challenges need to be tackled, including cyber-physical system modelling approaches, advanced intrusion detection systems, and resilient estimation and control methods. Machine learning (ML) and its emerging algorithms offer the potential of dealing with large-scale data analysis, data processing and decision-making in the security of CPICSs.</p><p>This special issue publishes state-of-the-art ML-based solutions for the open challenges in securing CPICSs of critical infrastructures.</p><p>When modelling cyber-attacks in CPICSs, most of existing works consider using external disturbances, which follow certain assumptions. While it is not sufficient to model cyber-attacks simply as disturbances, the paper ‘Game theoretic vulnerability management for secondary frequency control of islanded microgrids against false data injection (FDI) attacks’ by S. Liu et al. considers the dynamic interaction between the smart attacker (the spoofer) and the defender the microgrid control centre (MGCC). The authors propose a stochastic game between the MGCC and the attacker for enhancing the vulnerability of the MGCC to FDI attack (wireless spoof attack).</p><p>As communication networks are implemented for information exchange between the master and slave sides of bilateral teleoperation systems, they are also exposed to cyber-attack threats. The paper ‘Mode-dependent switching control of bilateral teleoperation against random denial-of-service attacks’ by L.

Cyber-physical systems devices must be protected against active threats, such as Radio Frequency (RF) Jammers, which intentionally disrupt communication links. Jamming detection and mitigation techniques must be evaluated extensively to validate algorithms prior to full implementation. Challenges related to obtaining zoning permits, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) pilot certification for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) licencing lead to evaluation limited to simulation-based or simplistic, non-representative hardware experimentation. A site-specific ray-tracing emulation framework is presented to provide a realistic evaluation of communication devices under RF jamming attacks in complex scenarios involving mobility, vehicular, and UAV systems. System architecture and capabilities are provided for the devices under test, real-world jamming adversaries, channel modelling, and channel emulation.
