Online Identification of Failure and Attack on Interdependent Critical Infrastructures (FACIES)
FACIES is a project geared at providing preventive solutions that help critical systems deal with anomalous situations. It thus focuses on the management of both physical and logical anomalies, and on providing solutions for a better defence of the system.
Given that the vast majority of critical infrastructures are controlled by SCADA systems, NISC Lab’s collaboration with the project focused on dealing with the detection of anomalies and stealth attacks in these types of systems, and on the analysis of current mechanisms to detect and respond to this type of potential attacks. In addition, it has collaborated actively with the other partners in the discussion and resolution of problems, and the dissemination, integration and validation of the solutions in a real testing scenario based on water management and treatment.
