Security of Cyber-Physical Systems: Threats, Control-Theoretic Perspectives and Surveys

Cyber-physical systems differ from conventional IT systems because attacks can have physical consequences. This review summarises a position paper on secure control and a comprehensive survey of cyber-physical system security, and relates them to the security discussions in smart grid surveys. It describes the frameworks used to classify threats and the research directions that these sources identify. This is a narrative review; it contains no new data.
