    The infrastructure of cyber-physical systems (CPS) is based on a meta-concept of cybermanufacturing systems (CMS) that synchronizes the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoTs), Cloud Computing, Industrial Control Systems (ICSs), and Big Data analytics in manufacturing operations. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be incorporated to make intelligent decisions in the day-to-day operations of CMS. Cyberattack spaces in AI-based cybermanufacturing operations pose significant challenges, including unauthorized modification of systems, loss of historical data, destructive malware, software malfunctioning, etc. However, a cybersecurity framework can be implemented to prevent unauthorized access, theft, damage, or other harmful attacks on electronic equipment, networks, and sensitive data. The five main cybersecurity framework steps are divided into procedures and countermeasure efforts, including identifying, protecting, detecting, responding, and recovering. Given the major challenges in AI-enabled cybermanufacturing systems, three research objectives are proposed in this dissertation by incorporating cybersecurity frameworks. The first research aims to detect the in-situ additive manufacturing (AM) process authentication problem using high-volume video streaming data. A side-channel monitoring approach based on an in-situ optical imaging system is established, and a tensor-based layer-wise texture descriptor is constructed to describe the observed printing path. Subsequently, multilinear principal component analysis (MPCA) is leveraged to reduce the dimension of the tensor-based texture descriptor, and low-dimensional features can be extracted for detecting attack-induced alterations. The second research work seeks to address the high-volume data stream problems in multi-channel sensor fusion for diverse bearing fault diagnosis. This second approach proposes a new multi-channel sensor fusion method by integrating acoustics and vibration signals with different sampling rates and limited training data. The frequency-domain tensor is decomposed by MPCA, resulting in low-dimensional process features for diverse bearing fault diagnosis by incorporating a Neural Network classifier. By linking the second proposed method, the third research endeavor is aligned to recovery systems of multi-channel sensing signals when a substantial amount of missing data exists due to sensor malfunction or transmission issues. This study has leveraged a fully Bayesian CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (FBCP) factorization method that enables to capture of multi-linear interaction (channels Ă— signals) among latent factors of sensor signals and imputes missing entries based on observed signals

    In the vision of Cyber-Manufacturing System (CMS) , the physical components such as products, machines, and tools are connected, identifiable and can communicate via the industrial network and the Internet. This integration of connectivity enables manufacturing systems access to computational resources, such as cloud computing, digital twin, and blockchain. The connected manufacturing systems are expected to be more efficient, sustainable and cost-effective. However, the extensive connectivity also increases the vulnerability of physical components. The attack surface of a connected manufacturing environment is greatly enlarged. Machines, products and tools could be targeted by cyber-physical attacks via the network. Among many emerging security concerns, this research focuses on the intrusion detection of cyber-physical attacks. The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used to monitor cyber-attacks in the computer security domain. For cyber-physical attacks, however, there is limited work. Currently, the IDS cannot effectively address cyber-physical attacks in manufacturing system: (i) the IDS takes time to reveal true alarms, sometimes over months; (ii) manufacturing production life-cycle is shorter than the detection period, which can cause physical consequences such as defective products and equipment damage; (iii) the increasing complexity of network will also make the detection period even longer. This gap leaves the cyber-physical attacks in manufacturing to cause issues like over-wearing, breakage, defects or any other changes that the original design didn’t intend. A review on the history of cyber-physical attacks, and available detection methods are presented. The detection methods are reviewed in terms of intrusion detection algorithms, and alert correlation methods. The attacks are further broken down into a taxonomy covering four dimensions with over thirty attack scenarios to comprehensively study and simulate cyber-physical attacks. A new intrusion detection and correlation method was proposed to address the cyber-physical attacks in CMS. The detection method incorporates IDS software in cyber domain and machine learning analysis in physical domain. The correlation relies on a new similarity-based cyber-physical alert correlation method. Four experimental case studies were used to validate the proposed method. Each case study focused on different aspects of correlation method performance. The experiments were conducted on a security-oriented manufacturing testbed established for this research at Syracuse University. The results showed the proposed intrusion detection and alert correlation method can effectively disclose unknown attack, known attack and attack interference that causes false alarms. In case study one, the alarm reduction rate reached 99.1%, with improvement of detection accuracy from 49.6% to 100%. The case studies also proved the proposed method can mitigate false alarms, detect attacks on multiple machines, and attacks from the supply chain. This work contributes to the security domain in cyber-physical manufacturing systems, with the focus on intrusion detection. The dataset collected during the experiments has been shared with the research community. The alert correlation methodology also contributes to cyber-physical systems, such as smart grid and connected vehicles, which requires enhanced security protection in today’s connected world

    Material extrusion-based additive manufacturing: G-code and firmware attacks and Defense frameworks

    Additive Manufacturing (AM) refers to a group of manufacturing processes that create physical objects by sequentially depositing thin layers. AM enables highly customized production with minimal material wastage, rapid and inexpensive prototyping, and the production of complex assemblies as single parts in smaller production facilities. These features make AM an essential component of Industry 4.0 or Smart Manufacturing. It is now used to print functional components for aircraft, rocket engines, automobiles, medical implants, and more. However, the increased popularity of AM also raises concerns about cybersecurity. Researchers have demonstrated strength degradation attacks on printed objects by injecting cavities in the design file which cause premature failure and catastrophic consequences such as failure of the attacked propeller of a drone during flight. Since a 3D printer is a cyber-physical system that connects the cyber and physical domains in a single process chain, it has a different set of vulnerabilities and security requirements compared to a conventional IT setup. My Ph.D. research focuses on the cybersecurity of one of the most popular AM processes, Material Extrusion or Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). Although previous research has investigated attacks on printed objects by altering the design, these attacks often leave a larger footprint and are easier to detect. To address this limitation, I have focused on attacks at the intermediate stage of slicing through minimal manipulations at the individual sub-process level. By doing so, I have demonstrated that it is possible to implant subtle defects in printed parts that can evade detection schemes and bypass many quality assessment checks. In addition to exploring attacks through design files or network layer manipulations, I have also proposed firmware attacks that cause damage to the printed parts, the printer, and the printing facility. To detect sabotage attacks on FFF process, I have developed an attack detection framework that analyzes the cyber and physical domain state of the printing process and detects anomalies using a series of estimation and comparison algorithms in time, space, and frequency domains. An implementation case study confirms that cyber-physical security frameworks are an effective solution against sophisticated sabotage attacks. The increasing use of 3D printing technology to produce functional components underscores the growing importance of compliance and regulations in ensuring their quality and safety. Currently, there are no standards or best practices to guide a user in making a critical printing setup forensically ready. Therefore, I am proposing a novel forensic readiness framework for material extrusion-based 3D printing that will guide standards organizations in formulating compliance criteria for important 3D printing setups. I am optimistic that my offensive and defensive research endeavors presented in this thesis will serve as a valuable resource for researchers and industry practitioners in creating a safer and more secure future for additive manufacturing
