To solve the problem of an excessive number of component vulnerabilities and limited defense resources in industrial cyber physical systems, a method for analyzing security critical components of system is proposed. Firstly, the components and vulnerability information in the system are modeled based on SysML block definition diagram. Secondly, as SysML block definition diagram is challenging to support direct analysis, a block security dependency graph model is proposed. On this basis, the transformation rules from SysML block definition graph to block security dependency graph are established according to the structure of block definition graph and its vulnerability information. Then, the calculation method of component security importance is proposed, and a security critical component analysis tool is designed and implemented. Finally, an example of a Drone system is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The application of this method can provide theoretical and technical support for selecting key defense components in the industrial cyber physical system.

Modern operating systems are typical multitasking systems: Running multiple tasks at the same time. Therefore, a large number of system calls belonging to different processes are invoked at the same time. By associating these invocations, one can construct the system dependency graph. In rapidly evolving system dependency graphs, how to quickly find outliers is an urgent issue for intrusion detection. Clustering analysis based on graph similarity will help solve this problem. In this paper, an extended Weisfeiler-Lehman(WL) kernel is proposed. Firstly, an embedded vector with indefinite dimensions is constructed based on the original dependency graph. Then, the vector is compressed with Simhash to generate a fingerprint. Finally, anomaly detection based on clustering is carried out according to these fingerprints. Our scheme can achieve prominent detection with high efficiency. For validation, we choose StreamSpot, a relevant prior work, to act as benchmark, and use the same data set as it to carry out evaluations. Experiments show that our scheme can achieve the highest detection precision of 98% while maintaining a perfect recall performance. Moreover, both quantitative and visual comparisons demonstrate the outperforming clustering effect of our scheme than StreamSpot.
