Unsupervised Learning Based Robust Multivariate Intrusion Detection System for Cyber-Physical Systems using Low Rank Matrix
share
Regular and uninterrupted operation of critical infrastructures such as power, transport, communication etc. are essential for proper functioning of a country. Cyber-attacks causing disruption in critical infrastructure service in the past, are considered as a significant threat. With the advancement in technology and the progress of the critical infrastructures towards IP based communication, cyber-physical systems are lucrative targets of the attackers. In this paper, we propose a robust multivariate intrusion detection system called RAD for detecting attacks in the cyber-physical systems in O(d) space and time complexity, where d is the number parameters in the system state vector. The proposed Intrusion Detection System(IDS) is developed in an unsupervised learning setting without using labelled data denoting attacks. It allows a fraction of the training data to be corrupted by outliers or under attack, by subscribing to robust training procedure. The proposed IDS outperforms existing anomaly detection techniques in several real-world datasets and attack scenarios.
