Visible to the public Foundations Of Resilient CybEr-physical Systems (FORCES)

Submitted by lrohrbough on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 12:44pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are being increasingly deployed in critical infrastructures such as electric-power, water, transportation, and other networks. These deployments are facilitating real-time monitoring and closed-loop control by exploiting the advances in wireless sensor-actuator networks, the internet of "everything," data-driven analytics, and machine-to-machine interfaces. CPS operations depend on the synergy of computational and physical components.

Visible to the public Preserving Confidentiality of Sensitive Information in Power System Models

Submitted by parmesh on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 12:44pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

The electric power grid is a critical infrastructure that is vulnerable to physical and cyber attacks. As a result, data describing grid topology and components is considered sensitive information. There is also increasing need to foster cooperation among the participants in microgrid-enabled electric marketplace.

Visible to the public Towards Secure Networked Cyber-Physical Systems: A Theoretic Framework with Bounded Rationality

Submitted by saad.walid on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 12:17pm. Contributors:

Securing critical networked cyber-physical systems (NCPSs) such as the power grid or transportation systems has emerged as a major national and global priority. The networked nature of such systems renders them vulnerable to a range of attacks both in cyber and physical domains as corroborated by recent threats such as the Energetic Bear virus.

Visible to the public Deploying the Security Behavior Observatory: An Infrastructure for Long-term Monitoring of Client Machines

Submitted by aforget on Tue, 10/28/2014 - 12:23pm. Contributor:

Abstract: Much of the data researchers usually collect about users' privacy and security behavior comes from short-term studies and focuses on specific, narrow activities. We present a design architecture and deployment of the Security Behavior Observatory (SBO), a client-server infrastructure designed to collect a wide array of data on user and computer security- and privacy-related behavior from a panel of hundreds of participants over several years. The SBO infrastructure had to be carefully designed to fulfill several requirements.
