Overview. The Internet of Things (IoT) leverages Internet technology in cyber-physical systems, but the protocols and principles of the Internet were not designed for interacting with the physical world. For example, timeliness is not a factor in any widespread Internet technology, with Quality-of-Service (QoS) features having been routinely omitted for decades.

With electronic devices increasingly interacting with each other and with the physical world around them, device behavior is becoming more and more like human behavior, namely reliant on experiences and not just data. Hence, there’s a disconnect between how most devices have been engineered and what what practitioners are expecting them to do, and because of this fact, there’s also a disconnect between the common cyber-security protections that protect data and some of the desirable proofs and verifications that can be highly valuable to cyber-physical devices.

This is a collaborative research project between Washington University in St. Louis, Michigan State University and University of Nevada Reno and is investigating a cyber-physical framework for scalable, long-term monitoring and condition-based maintenance of civil infrastructures. Civil infrastructure constitutes a network of interdependent systems and utilities (e.g., highways, bridges, rail systems, buildings) that are necessary for supporting social and economic activities.

Abstract: This research is investigating a cyber-physical framework for scalable, long-term monitoring and condition- based maintenance of civil infrastructures. Civil infrastructure constitutes a network of interdependent sys- tems and utilities (e.g., highways, bridges, rail systems, buildings) that are necessary for supporting social and economic activities.

Project
CPS: Synergy: Collaborative Research: Support for Security and Safety of Programmable IoT Systems
This work examines how to get safety and security in Internet of Things (IoT) systems where multiple devices (things), each designed in isolation from others, are brought together to form a networked system, controlled via one or more software applications ("apps"). "Things" in an IoT environment can include simple devices such as switches, lightbulbs, smart locks, thermostats, and safety alarms as well as complex systems such as appliances, smartphones, and cars. Software IoT "apps" can monitor and control multiple devices in homes, cars, cities, and businesses, providing significant benefits such as energy efficiency, security, safety, and user convenience. Unfortunately, programmable IoT systems also introduce new risks, including enabling remote control by hackers of devices in smart homes, cars, and cities, via buggy IoT apps. Testing IoT apps to remove bugs is currently challenging due to a variety of physical devices with which such apps may interact, including devices that were not even available during app development. The proposed work will help develop techniques for testing IoT apps efficiently and for enforcing safety and security constraints on their run-time behavior. More specifically, the proposed work is centered around three technical thrusts: 1) creating virtual device models to help efficiently test IoT apps systematically without knowing the precise details of physical devices that the apps will control in advance; 2) automating test development for an IoT app to check safety and security specifications against a flexible set of devices; and 3) providing support for enforcement of specifications at run-time for security and safety assertions. The work includes extensive experimentation and evaluation using diverse devices and will represent a significant advance in hardening this important spaces
