Emerging framework for attack detection in cyber-physical systems using heuristic-based optimization algorithm

Abstract

In recent days, cyber-physical systems (CPS) have become a new wave generation of human life, exploiting various smart and intelligent uses of automotive systems. In these systems, information is shared through networks, and data is collected from multiple sensor devices. This network has sophisticated control, wireless communication, and high-speed computation. These features are commonly available in CPS, allowing multi-users to access and share information through the network via remote access. Therefore, protecting resources and sensitive information in the network is essential. Many research works have been developed for detecting insecure networks and attacks in the network. This article introduces a framework, namely Deep Bagging Convolutional Neural Network with Heuristic Multiswarm Ant Colony Optimization (DCNN-HMACO), designed to enhance the secure transmission of information, improve efficiency, and provide convenience in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). The proposed framework aims to detect attacks in CPS effectively. Compared to existing methods, the DCNN-HMACO framework significantly improves attack detection rates and enhances overall system protection. While the accuracy rates of CNN and FCM are reported as 72.12% and 79.56% respectively, our proposed framework achieves a remarkable accuracy rate of 92.14%.
