Abstract

In Industrial Control Systems, isolated proprietary networks are widely used to prevent cyber attacks from Internet. However, the attack can bypass it by connecting external devices into networks, named as device-connected attack. In field bus networks, this attack is hard to be prevented but easy to be implemented. In this paper, the physical intrusion detection is proposed against the device-connected attack. Rather than the network traffic in network intrusion detection, the impedance of whole system and voltage signals are applied to detect the device-connected attack, which would be slightly changed when the external devices are connected. The demo system is implemented on RS485 bus network to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method.
