The New Codebreakers

Abstract

We argue that cyber-physical systems cannot be protected just by protecting their IT infrastructure and that the CIA approach to security is insufficient. Rather, the IT components should be treated as a control system, inputs to that control system should be checked for veracity, and control algorithms should be designed in a way that they can handle a certain amount of adversarial actions.
