Interpreting the vulnerability of power systems in cascading failures using multi-graph convolutional Research Article

Supaporn LONAPALAWONG, Changsheng CHEN, Can WANG, Wei CHEN

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 12,   Pages 1848-1861 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2200035

Abstract: Analyzing the of in is generally regarded as a challenging problem. Although existing studies can extract some critical rules, they fail to capture the complex subtleties under different operational conditions. In recent years, several deep learning methods have been applied to address this issue. However, most of the existing deep learning methods consider only the grid topology of a power system in terms of topological connections, but do not encompass a power system's spatial information such as the electrical distance to increase the accuracy in the process of graph convolution. In this paper, we construct a novel power- that uses power system topology and spatial information to optimize the edge weight assignment of the line graph. Then we propose a multi-graph convolutional network (MGCN) based on a graph classification task, which preserves a power system's spatial correlations and captures the relationships among physical components. Our model can better handle the problem with that have parallel lines, where our method can maintain desirable accuracy in modeling systems with these extra topology features. To increase the interpretability of the model, we present the MGCN using layer-wise relevance propagation and quantify the contributing factors of model classification.

CORMAND2: A Deception Attack Against Industrial Robots Article

Hongyi Pu,Liang He,Peng Cheng,Jiming Chen,Youxian Sun

Engineering 2024, Volume 32, Issue 1,   Pages 186-202 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2023.01.013

Abstract:

Industrial robots are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyber incidents and attacks, particularly with the dawn of the Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT). To gain a comprehensive understanding of these cyber risks, vulnerabilities of industrial robots were analyzed empirically, using more than three million communication packets collected with testbeds of two ABB IRB120 robots and five other robots from various Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). This analysis, guided by the confidentiality–integrity–availability (CIA) triad, uncovers robot vulnerabilities in three dimensions: confidentiality, integrity, and availability. These vulnerabilities were used to design Covering Robot Manipulation via Data Deception (CORMAND2), an automated cyber–physical attack against industrial robots. CORMAND2 manipulates robot operation while deceiving the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system that the robot is operating normally by modifying the robot’s movement data and data deception. CORMAND2 and its capability of degrading the manufacturing was validated experimentally using the aforementioned seven robots from six different OEMs. CORMAND2 unveils the limitations of existing anomaly detection systems, more specifically the assumption of the authenticity of SCADA-received movement data, to which we propose mitigations for.
