Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are the underlying monitoring
and control components of critical infrastructures, such as power, telecommunication …

Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks have become a weapon of choice for hackers,
cyber extortionists, and cyber terrorists. These attacks can swiftly incapacitate a victim …

Software-defined networking (SDN) is an emerging paradigm, which breaks the vertical
integration in traditional networks to provide the flexibility to program the network through …

Abstract Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) are almost everywhere; they can be accessed and
controlled remotely. These features make them more vulnerable to cyber attacks. Since …

Abstract Software Defined Networks (SDNs) based on the OpenFlow (OF) protocol export
control-plane programmability of switched substrates. As a result, rich functionality in traffic …

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are the next generation of engineered systems in which
computing, communication, and control technologies are tightly integrated. Research on …

In the last years there has been an increasing interest in the security of process control and
SCADA systems. Furthermore, recent computer attacks such as the Stuxnet worm, have …

Nature discovered feedback long ago. It created feedback mechanisms and exploited them
at all levels, that are central to homeostasis and life. As a technology, control dates back at …

Despite their exponential growth, home and small office/home office networks continue to be
poorly managed. Consequently, security of hosts in most home networks is easily …

The increasing practicality of large-scale flow capture makes it possible to conceive of traffic
analysis methods that detect and identify a large and diverse set of anomalies. However the …
