This paper presents a Domain Specific Language (DSL) for generically describing cyber attacks, agnostic to specific system-under-test(SUT). The creation of the presented DSL is motivated by an automotive use case. The concepts of the DSL…
Semantic control entails steering LM generations towards satisfying subtle non-lexical constraints, e.g., toxicity, sentiment, or politeness, attributes that can be captured by a sequence-level verifier. It can thus be viewed as sampling…
Proper implementation of technical and administrative controls reinforces an organization's cybersecurity posture and business resilience, reduces risks, and enhances governance, ultimately elevating business maturity. The dynamics of the…
This paper proposes a framework for secure and resilient controller design for positive systems against cyber-attacks. In particular, we consider a network-controlled system where an adversary injects false data into the actuator channels…
Event-triggered networked control of a linear dynamical system is investigated. Specifically, the dynamical system and the controller are assumed to be connected through a communication channel. State and control input information packets…
A hard real-time system cannot miss any deadline. A weakly-hard real-time system, on the contrary, is designed to tolerate a specific number of deadline misses. For instance, the AnyMiss(2, 300) weakly-hard constraint stipulates that in…
This work deals with the production planning problem in Discrete Event Systems, using the Supervisory Control Theory to delimit the search universe and developing two heuristics based on the maximization of the parallelism to find sequences…
The Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm decouples control and data planes, offering high programmability and a global view of the network. However, it is a challenge not only provide security in these next generation networks as well…
This work investigates the problem of synthesizing fortified supervisors against covert actuator attackers. For a non-resilient supervisor S, i.e., there exists at least a covert actuator attacker that is capable of inflicting damage w.r.t…
The emerging wide area monitoring systems (WAMS) have brought significant improvements in electric grids' situational awareness. However, the newly introduced system can potentially increase the risk of cyber-attacks, which may be disguised…
Software-defined networking (SDN) has become a fundamental technology for data centers and 5G networks. In an SDN network, routing and traffic management decisions are made by a centralized controller and communicated to switches via a…
Most self-supervised learning (SSL) methods learn continuous visual representations by aligning different views of the same input, offering limited control over how information is structured across representation dimensions. In this work,…
This work investigates the problem of synthesizing obfuscated supervisors against covert actuator attackers. For a non-resilient supervisor S, for which there exist some covert actuator attackers that are capable of inflicting damage, we…
With the increasing prevalence of complex vision-based sensing methods for use in obstacle identification and state estimation, characterizing environment-dependent measurement errors has become a difficult and essential part of modern…
This paper proposes a worst-case data-driven control architecture capable of ensuring the safety of constrained Cyber-Physical Systems under cyber-attacks while minimizing, whenever possible, potential degradation in tracking performance.…
There is an increasing need to study the vulnerability of communication protocols in distributed systems to malicious attacks that attempt to violate properties such as safety or nonblockingness. In this paper, we propose a common…
In practice, we can not only disable some events, but also enforce the occurrence of some events prior to the occurrence of other events by external control. In this paper, we combine these two control mechanisms to synthesize a more…
Complexity analysis becomes a common task in supervisory control. However, many results of interest are spread across different topics. The aim of this paper is to bring several interesting results from complexity theory and to illustrate…
Decentralized control systems are widely used in a number of situations and applications. In order for these systems to function properly and achieve their desired goals, information must be propagated between agents, which requires…
This paper presents a novel, safe control architecture (SCA) for controlling an important class of systems: safety-critical systems. Ensuring the safety of control decisions has always been a challenge in automatic control. The proposed SCA…
