Indirect cyber attacks by perturbation of environment control: a data driven attack model: poster

When the security of computing infrastructure has been considered, the focus has traditionally been on the infrastructure itself with less thought given to the surrounding systems that affect the operation of the infrastructure. Instead, our indirect attack model targets a super computer by obfuscating the control of a cyber-physical system (CPS) responsible for maintaining the operational environment.
