Switched-based Control Testbed to Assure Cyber-physical Resilience by Design

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) integrate control systems engineering, computer science, and networking to control a physical process. The main challenge after detecting malicious actions in a CPS is to choose the correct reaction that the system has to carry out. In this paper, we propose a deployment platform for cyber-physical configurations evaluation to satisfy cyber-physical resilience properties. Experimental testbeds are crucial to analyze new proposals. For this reason, we discuss some actions for the development of a replicable and affordable cyber-physical testbed for training and research. The architecture is based on real-world components. This solution combines diverse parameters that come from cyber and physical layers.
