The security control problem of cyber-physical system (CPS) under actuator attacks is studied in the paper. Considering the strict-feedback cyber-physical systems with external disturbance, a security control scheme is proposed by combining backstepping method and super-twisting sliding mode technology when the transmission control input signal of network layer is under false data injection(FDI) attack. Firstly, the unknown nonlinear function of the CPS is identified by Radial Basis Function Neural Network. Secondly, the backstepping method and super-twisting sliding mode algorithm are combined to eliminate the influence of actuator attack and ensure the robustness of the control system. Then, by Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved that the proposed control scheme can ensure that all signals in the closed-loop system are semi-global and ultimately uniformly bounded. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by the inverted pendulum simulation.

Artificial neural networks allow the identification of black-box models. This paper proposes a method aimed at replicating the static and dynamic behavior of a DC-DC power converter based on a recurrent nonlinear autoregressive exogenous neural network. The method proposed in this work applies an algorithm that trains a neural network based on the inputs and outputs (currents and voltages) of a Buck converter. The approach is validated by means of simulated data of a realistic nonsynchronous Buck converter model programmed in Simulink and by means of experimental results. The predictions made by the neural network are compared to the actual outputs of the system, to determine the accuracy of the method, thus validating the proposed approach. Both simulation and experimental results show the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed black-box approach.

In this paper, RBF-based multistage auto-encoders are used to detect IDS attacks. RBF has numerous applications in various actual life settings. The planned technique involves a two-part multistage auto-encoder and RBF. The multistage auto-encoder is applied to select top and sensitive features from input data. The selected features from the multistage auto-encoder is wired as input to the RBF and the RBF is trained to categorize the input data into two labels: attack or no attack. The experiment was realized using MATLAB2018 on a dataset comprising 175,341 case, each of which involves 42 features and is authenticated using 82,332 case. The developed approach here has been applied for the first time, to the knowledge of the authors, to detect IDS attacks with 98.80% accuracy when validated using UNSW-NB15 dataset. The experimental results show the proposed method presents satisfactory results when compared with those obtained in this field.

The emergence of novel technologies and high speed networks has enabled a continually generation of huge volumes of data that should be stored and processed. These big data have allowed the emergence of new forms of complex attacks whose resolution represents a big challenge. Different methods and tools are developed to deal with this issue but definite detection is still needed since various features are not considered and tracing back an attack remains a timely activity. In this context, we propose an investigation framework that allows the reconstruction of complex attack scenarios based on huge volume of data. This framework used a temporal conceptual graph to represent the big data and the dependency between them in addition to the tracing back of the whole attack scenario. The selection of the most probable attack scenario is assisted by a developed decision model based on hybrid neural network that enables the real time classification of the possible attack scenarios using RBF networks and the convergence to the most potential attack scenario within the support of an Elman network. The efficiency of the proposed framework has been illustrated for the global attack reconstruction process targeting a smart city where a set of available services are involved.

This study has built a simulation of a smart home system by the Alibaba ECS. The architecture of hardware was based on edge computing technology. The whole method would design a clear classifier to find the boundary between regular and mutation codes. It could be applied in the detection of the mutation code of network. The project has used the dataset vector to divide them into positive and negative type, and the final result has shown the RBF-function SVM method perform best in this mission. This research has got a good network security detection in the IoT systems and increased the applications of machine learning.

Poisoning attack in which an adversary misleads the learning process by manipulating its training set significantly affect the performance of classifiers in security applications. This paper proposed a robust learning method which reduces the influences of attack samples on learning. The sensitivity, defined as the fluctuation of the output with small perturbation of the input, in Localized Generalization Error Model (L-GEM) is measured for each training sample. The classifier's output on attack samples may be sensitive and inaccurate since these samples are different from other untainted samples. An import score is assigned to each sample according to its localized generalization error bound. The classifier is trained using a new training set obtained by resampling the samples according to their importance scores. RBFNN is applied as the classifier in experimental evaluation. The proposed model outperforms than the traditional one under the well-known label flip poisoning attacks including nearest-first and farthest-first flips attack.
