Emulytics for Cyber-Enabled Physical Attack Scenarios: Interim LDRD Report of Year One Results

Clem, John F.; Urias, Vincent U.; Atkins, William D.; Symonds, Christopher J.

Sandia National Laboratories has funded the research and development of a new capability to interactively explore the effects of cyber exploits on the performance of physical protection systems. This informal, interim report of progress summarizes the project’s basis and year one (of two) accomplishments. It includes descriptions of confirmed cyber exploits against a representative testbed protection system and details the development of an emulytics capability to support live, virtual, and constructive experiments. This work will support stakeholders to better engineer, operate, and maintain reliable protection systems.
