Resilience of Cyber-Physical Systems

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2019-01-25
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

This book addresses the latest approaches to holistic Cyber-Physical System (CPS) resilience in real-world industrial applications. Ensuring the resilience of CPSs requires cross-discipline analysis and involves many challenges and open issues, including how to address evolving cyber-security threats. The book describes emerging paradigms and techniques from two main viewpoints: CPSs’ exposure to new threats, and CPSs’ potential to counteract them. Further, the chapters address topics ranging from risk modeling to threat management and mitigation. The book offers a clearly structured, highly accessible resource for a diverse readership, including graduate students, researchers and industry practitioners who are interested in evaluating and ensuring the resilience of CPSs in both the development and assessment stages.

Critical applications are defined as the ones whose failure has a relevant impact on finance, human beings and the environment. A failure occurs when the application is no longer able to guarantee the success of its required function. There exists several levels of criticality, according to the several possible classes of failure. The simplest distinction, for instance, is between the classes of failure corresponding to service unavailable or service incorrect, with many nuances within those two extremes (ie: partial failures). Generally speaking, it is better to make the system unavailable when a possibly incorrect behaviour is diagnosed, when system unavailability corresponds to a safer state. This book discusses critical applications and the inconsistencies which poses a threat to the successful completion of the function.

Machine Intelligence and Big Data Analytics for Cybersecurity Applications

This book presents the latest advances in machine intelligence and big data analytics to improve early warning of cyber-attacks, for cybersecurity intrusion detection and monitoring, and malware analysis. Cyber-attacks have posed real and wide-ranging threats for the information society. Detecting cyber-attacks becomes a challenge, not only because of the sophistication of attacks but also because of the large scale and complex nature of today’s IT infrastructures. It discusses novel trends and achievements in machine intelligence and their role in the development of secure systems and identifies open and future research issues related to the application of machine intelligence in the cybersecurity field. Bridging an important gap between machine intelligence, big data, and cybersecurity communities, it aspires to provide a relevant reference for students, researchers, engineers, and professionals working in this area or those interested in grasping its diverse facets and exploring the latest advances on machine intelligence and big data analytics for cybersecurity applications.
