Abstract

Digital twins, being the virtual replicas of their physical counterparts, share valuable knowledge of the underlying system. Therefore, they might become a potential source of data breaches and a playground for attackers to launch covert attacks. It is imperative to investigate necessary countermeasures to mitigate such attacks.
