• Abstract: There is an upward trend of deploying distributed energy resource management systems (DERMS) to control modern power grids. However, DERMS controller communication lines are vulnerable to cyberattacks that could potentially impact operational reliability. While a data-driven intrusion detection system (IDS) can potentially thwart attacks during deployment, also known as the evasion attack, the training of the detection algorithm may be corrupted by adversarial data injected into the database, also known as the poisoning attack. In this paper, we propose the first framework of IDS that is robust against joint poisoning and evasion attacks. We formulate the defense mechanism as a bilevel optimization, where the inner and outer levels deal with attacks that occur during training time and testing time, respectively. We verify the robustness of our method on the IEEE-13 bus feeder model against a diverse set of poisoning and evasion attack scenarios. The results indicate that our proposed method outperforms the baseline technique in terms of accuracy, precision, and recall for intrusion detection.

  Smart grids are vulnerable to strategically crafted cyber-physical attacks. Malicious attacks can manipulate power demands using high-wattage Internet of Things (IoT) botnet devices. Grid operators overlook potential scenarios of cyber-physical attacks during their design phase. We propose a safe Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)-based framework for mitigating attacks on smart grids.

  A growing integration of vehicles with external networks has led to a surge in attacks targeting their Controller Area Network (CAN) internal bus. As a countermeasure, various Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) have been suggested in the literature to prevent and mitigate these threats. Most of these systems rely on data-driven approaches such as Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models. In this paper, we present CANEDERLI, a novel framework for securing CAN-based IDSs.

  We introduce epsilon-illusory, a novel form of adversarial attack on sequential decision-makers. Compared to existing attacks, we empirically find epsilon-illusory to be significantly harder to detect with automated methods. Our findings suggest the need for better anomaly detectors, as well as effective hardware- and system-level defenses.

  In this work, we present an adversarial attack that simultaneously evades the anomaly detectors and rule checkers of a CPS. Inspired by existing gradient-based approaches, our adversarial attack crafts noise over the sensor and actuator values, then uses a genetic algorithm to optimise the latter. We implement our approach for two real-world critical infrastructure testbeds, successfully reducing the classification accuracy of their detectors by over 50% on average.
