Wintenberg, Andrew, Lafortune, Stéphane, Ozay, Necmiye.  2022.  Communication Obfuscation for Privacy and Utility against Obfuscation-Aware Eavesdroppers. 2022 American Control Conference (ACC). :3363—3363.
Networked cyber-physical systems must balance the utility of communication for monitoring and control with the risks of revealing private information. Many of these networks, such as wireless communication, are vulnerable to eavesdrop-ping by illegitimate recipients. Obfuscation can hide information from eaves-droppers by ensuring their observations are ambiguous or misleading. At the same time, coordination with recipients can enable them to interpret obfuscated data. In this way, we propose an obfuscation framework for dynamic systems that ensures privacy against eavesdroppers while maintaining utility for legitimate recipients. We consider eavesdroppers unaware of obfuscation by requiring that their observations are consistent with the original system, as well as eaves-droppers aware of the goals of obfuscation by assuming they learn of the specific obfuscation implementation used. We present a method for bounded synthesis of solutions based upon distributed reactive synthesis and the synthesis of publicly-known obfuscators.
