Enhancing Cyber-Physical System Security through Intrusion Detection and Response Mechanisms

Thesis Abstract

Abstract


Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) integrate computational and physical processes, making them vulnerable to various security threats. This research focuses on enhancing CPS security through the implementation of effective intrusion detection and response mechanisms. The study begins with a comprehensive review of CPS, security threats, and existing approaches to security measures. A detailed methodology for security requirements analysis, intrusion detection technique selection, and response mechanism design is presented. The implementation phase involves the development of an intrusion detection system for CPS, integration of response mechanisms, and performance evaluation. The results are analyzed, compared with existing security measures, and visualized to demonstrate the security enhancements achieved. The thesis concludes with a summary of research contributions, implications, and recommendations for future work in the field of enhancing CPS security through intrusion detection and response mechanisms. This research is expected to provide valuable insights and practical solutions for addressing security concerns in CPS.
