• Abstract: As part of the Internet of Things, industrial devices are now also connected to cloud services. However, the connection to the Internet increases the risks for Industrial Control Systems. Therefore, a threat analysis is essential for these devices. In this paper, we examine Industrial Internet of Things devices, identify and rank different sources of threats and describe common threats and vulnerabilities. Finally, we recommend a procedure to carry out a threat analysis on these devices.

  The cyber domain of this smart power grid opens a new plethora of threats. Different stakeholders including regulation bodies, industry and academy are making efforts to provide security mechanisms to mitigate and reduce cyber-risks. Recent work shows a lack of agreement among grid practitioners and academic experts on the feasibility and consequences of academic-proposed threats. This is in part due to inadequate simulation models which do not evaluate threats based on attackers full capabilities and goals.

  To deploy secure Industrial Control and Production Systems (ICPS) in smart factories, cyber threats and risks must be addressed. Current approaches for threat modeling in cyber-physical systems (CPS) are ad hoc and inefficient. This paper proposes a novel quantitative threat modeling approach, aiming to identify probable attack vectors, assess the path of attacks, and evaluate the magnitude of each vector.

  The explosive growth of cyber attacks nowadays, such as malware, spam, and intrusions, caused severe consequences on society. Traditional Machine Learning (ML) based methods are extensively used in detecting cyber threats, but they hardly model the correlations between real-world cyber entities. With the proliferation of graph mining techniques, many researchers investigated these techniques for capturing correlations between cyber entities and achieving high performance.
