Program Purpose:

Recently, it has been reported that several critical infrastructure systems, like clean water systems and powerx000D
regulators, were still connected to the Internet and accessible publicly trough search engines, exposing them tox000D
cyber threats. Gathering real-time cyber intelligence of the threats that are targeting critical infrastructures is ax000D
complex challenge. The objective of this project is to develop an infrastructure that would streamline thex000D
deployment of a geographically distributed set of honey pots (honey net) that would mimic industrial controlx000D
systems (ICS) characteristics and look as ICS for the attackers. This would enable our industrial partner tox000D
gather ICS attack data and analysed them, in order to build efficient intrusion detection systems and intrusionx000D
prevention systems.
