How can we provide people and society
with cyber-physical systems that they
can trust their lives on?
Trustworthy:
Reliable, Secure, Privacy-
preserving, Usable, etc.

7. Security for CPS
3/9/2015CPS@Wireless Days 2013
7
 Safety, Security and Privacy
 Primary aim of all CPS design
 Ensure no harm comes to the underlying physical process
 Ensuring security/privacy crucial for safety
 CPS are deployed in missions critical settings
 Collect sensitive data and can actuate changes in the physical
process
 Composing individually secure systems into a composed system
might not be good enough
 Computation and Energy limitations .
 Utilizing properties from underlying physical process might be
a way to proceed

10. CPS Integration
 Vehicular Scenario:
 Service aware modules make communication and control efficient by
providing the best application in different services to a single car.
 Agriculture Scenario:
 Greenhouse: After receiving a configuration of greenhouse by
consumer, here our feedback awareness makes network efficient to
control different services like watering, humidity, plant health
monitoring etc. with real time control.
 Health Scenario:
 Hospital: Real time monitoring and control can be achieved by Data
Management Module and Service awareness module which also
plays an important role in order to provide QoS monitoring. While
designing a system for hospital, sensitive applications are queued on
the top priority.
