“…In this Passive System Identification attack, i(k) and o(k) are firstly captured by an eavesdropping [23,24] attack, during a monitoring period T. To deal with the eventual loss of samples, that may not be received by the attacker during T, the algorithm holds the value of the last received sample, according with (2), wherein…”

The literature regarding attacks in Networked Control Systems (NCS) indicates that covert and accurate attacks must be designed based on an accurate knowledge about the model of the attacked system. In this context, the literature on NCS presents the Passive System Identification attack as a metaheuristic-based tool to provide the attacker with the required system models. However, the scientific literature does not report countermeasures to mitigate the identification process performed by such passive metaheuristic-based attack. In this sense, this work proposes the use of a randomly switching controller as a countermeasure for the Passive System Identification attack, in case of failure of other conventional security mechanisms -such as encryption, network segmentation and firewall policies. This novel countermeasure aims to hinder the identification of the controller, so that the model obtained by the attacker is imprecise or ambiguous, in such a way that the attacker hesitates to launch covert or model-dependent attacks against the NCS. The simulation results indicate that this countermeasure is capable to mitigate the mentioned attack at the same time that it performs a satisfactory plant control.

In [37], the authors have analyzed the intercept behavior of industrial wireless sensor networks with different scheduling schemes. However, this study is only for conventional wireless sensor networks, and thus the security and reliable criteria have not been considered.…”

“…However, this study is only for conventional wireless sensor networks, and thus the security and reliable criteria have not been considered. Up to now, the performance analysis for the physical layer security of CRN s , in terms of non-zero secrecy capacity, probability of outage secrecy capacity, and ergodic secrecy capacity, have obtained great achievements [22,27,33,[37][38][39]. However, not many publications investigate the performance analysis in terms of reliable and security communication, which is considered as one of the most important criteria in the industry and internet of things (IoT) era.…”

Power allocation policy and performance analysis of secure and reliable communication in cognitive radio networks

et al. 2017

This paper investigates the problem of secure and reliable communications for cognitive radio networks. More specifically, we consider a single input multiple output cognitive model where the secondary user (SU) faces an eavesdropping attack while being subject to the normal interference constraint imposed by the primary user (PU). Thus, the SU must have a suitable power allocation policy which does not only satisfy the constraints of the PU but also the security constraints such that it obtains a reasonable performance for the SU, without exposing information to the eavesdropper. We derive four power allocation policies for different scenarios corresponding to whether or not the channel state information of the PU and the eavesdropper are available at the SU. Further, we introduce the concept secure and reliable communication probability (SRCP) as a performance metric to evaluate the considered system, as well as the efficiency of the four power allocation policies. Finally, we present numerical examples to illustrate the power allocation polices, and the impact of these policies on the SRCP of the SU.

This paper investigates the secrecy outage probability (SOP) and intercept behavior for the amplify-and-forward network over Nakagami-m fading channels. Relay selection schemes are evaluated. The optimal and suboptimal criterions require the instantaneous and statistical channel state information of the eavesdroppers' channels, respectively. The enhanced 2-hop criterion needs the additional information of the target secrecy rate for relay selection. Theoretical analysis reveals that the diversity order of the SOP is dominated by the minimum fading figures of the source-relay and relay-destination channels, while that of the intercept probability depends on the fading figure of the relay-destination channel. In the multirelay scenario, the optimal, suboptimal, and enhanced 2-hop scheme achieve the same diversity orders of the SOP. For the intercept probability, the optimal and second-hop relay selection schemes provide the same diversity order, while the diversity orders of the suboptimal and enhanced 2-hop schemes are the same. Simulation results finally substantiate the accuracy of the theoretical analysis.KEYWORDS amplify-and-forward, eavesdropper, intercept probability, Nakagami-m fading, secrecy outage probability
