Security Enhancement Against Insiders in Cyber-Manufacturing Systems

Trojan Detection and Side-Channel Analyses for Cyber-Security in Cyber-Physical Manufacturing Systems

As the maliciousness and frequency of cyber-attacks continues to grow, the safety and security of cyber-physical critical infrastructures, such as manufacturing, is quickly becoming a significant concern across the globe. Outside of traditional intellectual property theft, attacks against manufacturing systems pose a threat to maintaining a product’s design intent. More specifically, such attac...

Security in Cyber-Physical Systems

Information Security is a domain of IT that has a well developed body of knowledge, and a cadre of practitioners with significant experience in securing IT systems. Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) also has a well developed body of knowledge and a well trained cadre of professionals that have been successfully running systems for years. These are two separate groups that would benefit from working ...

Cyber-physical Vunerabilities in Additive Manufacturing Systems

One of the key advantages of additive manufacturing (AM) is its digital thread, which allows for rapid communication, iteration, and sharing of a design model and its corresponding physical representation. While this enables a more efficient design process, it also presents opportunities for cyber-attacks to impact the physical word. In this paper the authors examine potential attack vectors al...

CYBER-SECURITY – Managing threat scenarios in manufacturing companies

Smart Manufacturing Systems based on Cyber-physical Manufacturing Services (CPMS)

Future manufacturing is becoming “smart” – capable of agilely adapting to a wide variety of changing conditions. This requires production plants, supply chains and logistic systems to be flexible in design and reconfigurable “on the fly” to respond quickly to customer needs, production uncertainties, and market changes. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides a promising platform to achiev...
