CPS Resiliency


Resiliency Graphs: Modelling the Interplay between Cyber Attacks and System Failures through AI Planning.

Policy Compliance in Health Care 

Cyber Knowledge from Cyber Information

A curated cyber knowledge base with automated knowledge retrieving framework is required to efficiently analyze and investigate information and convert them into actionable operations.

CPS Risk Mitigation and Criticality Assessment 

This project presents a comprehensive framework for assessing and mitigating cyber risks in Industrial Control Systems (ICS), particularly focusing on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) such as wind farms.

DER System Security

This project aims to enhance the security of energy systems and other cyber-physical systems, particularly Distributed Energy Resource (DER) systems.

NIST NGAC Project 

This project introduces a dynamic access control framework inspired by the NIST Next Generation Access Control (NGAC), designed to meet the ever-evolving security demands of collaborative research environments.

Current Projects

ETL-Testing

Systematic testing techniques for the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process in an enterprise health data warehouse.

Fresh-Phish

Using different website features, we build a large labeled dataset and analyze several machine learning classifiers against this dataset to determine the most accurate in detecting phishing attacks.

BIOS and Firmware Security

This project focuses on developing efficient testing techniques at the BIOS/Firmware level and developing robust protocols based on code signing and verification.

IoT Security

This project explores unique identification models and fine-grained access control models for IoT environments.

Energy Security

This project studies cyber-physical control and energy systems using the best tools and people available to ensure the safety of critical energy infrastructure.

Heavy Vehicle Security

This project investigates security weaknesses of the SAE J1939 protocol stack and proposes practically deployable solutions to counter some of the impending threats.

Past Projects

COMPONENT-ORIENTED ACCESS CONTROL

With the advancements in contemporary multi-core CPU architectures, it is now possible for a server operating system (OS), such as Linux, to handle a large number of concurrent application services on a single server instance.

CONTENT-BASED XML OVERLAYS

TeleScope is the scalable XML message stream broker and replicator written in C. Its main purpose is to be an efficient XML transport broker. TeleScope provides the remote CLI interface to control its runtime operation.
