Real-time data fusion for intrusion detection in industrial control systems based on cloud computing and big data techniques.

Intrusion detection in industrial control systems (ICS) is crucial for maintaining secu rity in modern industries. However, the rapid growth of data generated from various sources presents significant challenges, as complex and diverse attacks continue to threaten the integrity of these systems. Traditional intrusion detection systems face limitations in effectively detecting intrusions and suffer from processing delays. To address these issues, there is an urgent need for a real-time and efficient IDS. This study introduces a novel approach to real-time intrusion detection in ICS by leveraging Cloud Computing and Big Data techniques for data fusion. By fusing mul tiple streams of data, our approach enhances intrusion detection performance, reduces false alarm rates, and produces more consistent and accurate results. The contributions of this work are two-fold. Firstly, we propose a real-time IDS that overcomes the limitations of traditional systems through the efficient processing capabilities of Cloud Computing and Big Data techniques. Secondly, we employ data fusion to integrate diverse data sources, resulting in improved intrusion detection accuracy and efficiency. Our proposed IDS achieves higher accuracy rates and demonstrates superior efficiency in detecting intrusions compared to existing solutions. These findings underscore the potential of our approach in enhancing ICS security and mitigating risks posed by evolving attacks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
