  5. 4. Honeypot study of threats targeting critical infrastructure

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Carlo Alberto Scola; [2023]
    Keywords : ICS; Honeypots; Modbus; SCADA; Enip; Conpot; Bacnet; FTP; IPMI; Network security; Cyber attacks;

    Abstract : Honeypots are systems with the intent of gathering information about potential threats and, at the same time, shifting part of the attention away from the real targets. In industrial control system environments, honeypots play a significant role and can lead to further threat study while distracting potential attackers away from critical physical systems. READ MORE

  6. 5. Cyber resilience for critical infrastructure : A systematic review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Vahid Naserinia; [2021]
    Keywords : Cyber resilience; critical infrastructures; systematic review;

    Abstract : Critical infrastructure is a term to define the network of crucial assets for the functioning of a society and modern economies. The complexity of critical infrastructures and the ability to connect smart devices to these networks make them more vulnerable to cyberattacks. READ MORE
