Reliable cyber-threat detection in rapidly changing environments

In some embodiments, a plurality of monitoring nodes each generate a series of current monitoring node values over time that represent a current operation of the industrial asset. An attack detection computer platform may receive the series of current monitoring node values and generate a set of current feature vectors including a current feature for capturing transients (e.g., local transients and/or global transients). The attack detection computer platform may also access an attack detection model having at least one decision boundary that was created using at least one of a set of normal feature vectors and/or a set of attacked feature vectors. The attack detection model may then be executed such that an attack alert signal is transmitted by the attack detection computer platform, when appropriate, based on the set of current feature vectors (including the current feature to capture transients) and the at least one decision boundary.

Using virtual sensors to accommodate industrial asset control systems during cyber attacks

In some embodiments, an industrial asset may be associated with a plurality of monitoring nodes, each monitoring node generating a series of monitoring node values over time that represent operation of the industrial asset. A threat detection computer may determine that an attacked monitoring node is currently being attacked. Responsive to this determination, a virtual sensor coupled to the plurality of monitoring nodes may estimate a series of virtual node values for the attacked monitoring node(s) based on information received from monitoring nodes that are not currently being attacked. The virtual sensor may then replace the series of monitoring node values from the attacked monitoring node(s) with the virtual node values. Note that in some embodiments, virtual node values may be estimated for a particular node even before it is determined that the node is currently being attacked.

Cyber-attack detection, localization, and neutralization for unmanned aerial vehicles

In some embodiments, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (“UAV”) system may be associated with a plurality of monitoring nodes, each monitoring node generating a series of monitoring node values over time that represent operation of the UAV system. An attack detection computer platform may receive the series of current monitoring node values and generate a set of current feature vectors. The attack detection computer platform may access an attack detection model having at least one decision boundary (e.g., created using a set of normal feature vectors a set of attacked feature vectors). The attack detection model may then be executed and the platform may transmit an attack alert signal based on the set of current feature vectors and the at least one decision boundary. According to some embodiments, attack localization and/or neutralization functions may also be provided.
