Abstract

An industrial control system hardened against malicious activity monitors highly dynamic control data to develop a dynamic thumbprint that can be evaluated to detect deviations from normal behavior of a type that suggest tampering or other attacks. Evaluation of the dynamic thumbprint may employ a set of ranges defining normal operation and reflecting known patterns of interrelationship between dynamic variables.
