A new normative approach to intrusion detection in manufacturing 4.0

Today, cybercrime is eased by the emergence of the fourth industrial revolution, industry 4.0. The fourth industrial revolution is characterized by the convergence of Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT) worlds', the huge generated data, the use of Cloud as new storage means and the limitation of the security mechanisms. All these factors have made industrial systems more vulnerable. Researchers focused on the issue of the security of industrial systems. However, the whole proposed intrusion detection systems papers are targeting either PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) levels. None of the proposed approaches has focused on the MES (Manufacturing Executive System) level. This paper proposes a new normative approach based on the ISA95 standard and ISO 22400 to detect intrusions in this specific level.
