• Abstract summary: Industrial Control Systems (ICS) have played a catalytic role in enabling the 4th Industrial Revolution. The convergence of traditional Operational Technology (OT) with Information Technology (IT) has opened a new and unique threat landscape. This has inspired defense research that focuses heavily on Machine Learning (ML) based anomaly detection methods that run on external IT hardware. We introduce the ICS machine learning inference framework (ICSML) which enables executing ML model inference on the PLC.

• Abstract: Industrial Control Systems (ICS) have played a catalytic role in enabling the 4th Industrial Revolution. ICS devices like Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), automate, monitor, and control critical processes in industrial, energy, and commercial environments. The convergence of traditional Operational Technology (OT) with Information Technology (IT) has opened a new and unique threat landscape. This has inspired defense research that focuses heavily on Machine Learning (ML) based anomaly detection methods that run on external IT hardware, which means an increase in costs and the further expansion of the threat landscape. To remove this requirement, we introduce the ICS machine learning inference framework (ICSML) which enables executing ML model inference natively on the PLC. ICSML is implemented in IEC 61131-3 code and provides several optimizations to bypass the limitations imposed by the domain-specific languages. Therefore, it works on every PLC without the need for vendor support. ICSML provides a complete set of components for creating full ML models similarly to established ML frameworks. We run a series of benchmarks studying memory and performance, and compare our solution to the TFLite inference framework. At the same time, we develop domain-specific model optimizations to improve the efficiency of ICSML. To demonstrate the abilities of ICSML, we evaluate a case study of a real defense for process-aware attacks targeting a desalination plant.

  We propose a novel approach to support domain-specific Model-Driven Software Engineering (MDSE) for the real-world use-case scenarios of smart Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) We argue that the majority of available data in the nature for Artificial Intelligence (AI) are unlabeled. Hence, unsupervised and/or semi-supervised ML approaches are the practical choices. Our proposed approach is fully implemented and integrated with an existing state-of-the-art MDSE tool to serve the CPS/IoT domain.
