The Internet of Behaviors (IoB) is an emerging concept that utilizes devices to collect human behavior and provide intelligent services. Although some research has focused on human behavior analysis and data collection within IoB, the…

Background and Purpose: Architectural deficiencies in EPICS lead to inefficiency in the development and application of EPICS IOCs. An unintrusive solution is replacing EPICS IOCs with more maintainable and flexible Python IOCs, only reusing…

We consider access control for IoT systems that involves shared accesses to the IoT devices as well as their data. Since IoT devices are dispersed all over the edge of the Internet, traditional centralized access control has problems.…

Industrial production plants traditionally include sensors for monitoring or documenting processes, and actuators for enabling corrective actions in cases of misconfigurations, failures, or dangerous events. With the advent of the IoT,…

While RPCs form the bedrock of systems stacks, we posit that IoT device collections in smart spaces like homes, warehouses, and office buildings--which are all "user-facing"--require a more expressive abstraction. Orthogonal to prior work,…

Embedded real-time devices for monitoring, controlling, and collaboration purposes in cyber-physical systems are now commonly equipped with IP networking capabilities. However, the reception and processing of IP packets generates workloads…

Communication between sensors, actors and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) in industrial systems moves from two-wire field buses to IP-based protocols such as Modbus/TCP. This increases the attack surface because the IP-based network…

The BaBar experiment is characterized by extremely high luminosity, a complex detector, and a huge data volume, with increasing requirements each year. To fulfill these requirements a new control system has been designed and developed for…

The EPICS based control system of the ISAC radioactive beam facility uses the CapFast schematic editor to construct the IOC function-block databases. This allows a self-documenting graphical representation of the IOC software using a…

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) execute critical control software that drives Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS). PLCs can become easy targets for cyber-adversaries as they are resource-constrained and are usually built…

For operating a 100MeV linear proton accelerator, the major driving values and experimental data need to be archived. According to the experimental conditions, different data are required. It is necessary to implement functions that can add…

Internal continuous discharge can rapidly damage high-current ion sources and their extraction systems composed of several electrodes at high voltage. To prevent this continuous discharge inside the extraction system, a rapid prototype…

Today's emerging Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) scenarios are characterized by the exchange of data between services across enterprises. Traditional access and usage control mechanisms are only able to determine if data may be used by…

We will use EPICS toolkit [1] to build a prototype for upgrading BEPC control system. The purposes are for the following three aspects: (1) Setup a network based distributed control system with EPICS. (2) Study some front-end control…

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has already become a part of our everyday life be it water supply, smart grid, or production, IIoT is everywhere. For example, factory operators want to know the current state of the production line.…

Traditional access control systems, including RBAC, face significant limitations such as inflexible role definitions, difficulty handling dynamic scenarios, and lack of detailed accountability and traceability. To this end, we introduce the…

With the prevalence of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, IoT devices interact closely with our surrounding environments, bringing us unparalleled smartness and convenience. However, the development of secure IoT solutions is getting a…

Recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) environment has become increasingly fertile for malicious users to break the security and privacy of IoT users. Access control is a paramount necessity to forestall illicit access. Traditional access…

The Internet of Things (IoT) necessitates robust access control mechanisms to secure a vast array of interconnected devices. Most of the existing IoT systems in practice use centralized solutions. We identify the problems in such solutions…

Broken Access Control (BAC) violations, which consistently rank among the top five security risks in the OWASP API Security Top 10, refer to unauthorized access attempts arising from BAC vulnerabilities, whose successful exploitation can…
