DESCRIPTION:Henrik Sanberg\,  Departement of Automatic Control\, KTH Roya
 l Institute of Technology\nAbstract:\nRecent cyber-attacks targeting contr
 ol and monitoring systems for critical infrastructures has revealed vulner
 abilities frequently present in networked control systems. In fact\, contr
 ol systems are often designed to satisfy performance and safety constraint
 s\, without regard to security. In this talk\, we discuss the application 
 of control-theoretic methods to model and counteract certain classes of cy
 ber-attacks on networked control systems. First\, we introduce a security 
 index\, which quantifies the inherent level of security against targeted\,
  malicious false-data injection attacks in feedback loops. We illustrate h
 ow to compute the index\, and how it is used to localize especially vulner
 able components in large-scale systems. We also show how the index determi
 nes the attacks that are possible to isolate and identify\, and those\, wh
 ich are not. Finally\, we introduce an optimal security allocation problem
  for control systems. Here we select components to protect to maximize sec
 urity\, subject to a budget constraint.\n \nBio:\nHenrik Sandberg is Prof
 essor at the Department of Automatic Control\, KTH Royal Institute of Tech
 nology\, Stockholm\, Sweden. He received the M.Sc. degree in engineering p
 hysics and the Ph.D. degree in automatic control from Lund University\, Lu
 nd\, Sweden\, in 1999 and 2004\, respectively. From 2005 to 2007\, he was 
 a Post-Doctoral Scholar at the California Institute of Technology\, Pasade
 na\, USA. In 2013\, he was a visiting scholar at the Laboratory for Inform
 ation and Decision Systems (LIDS) at MIT\, Cambridge\, USA. He has also he
 ld visiting appointments at the Australian National University and the Uni
 versity of Melbourne\, Australia. His current research interests include s
 ecurity of cyber-physical systems\, power systems\, model reduction\, and 
 fundamental limitations in control. Dr. Sandberg was a recipient of the Be
 st Student Paper Award from the IEEE Conference on Decision and Control in
  2004\, an Ingvar Carlsson Award from the Swedish Foundation for Strategic
  Research in 2007\, and Consolidator Grant from the Swedish Research Counc
 il in 2016. He leads the Center for Resilient Critical Infrastructures (CE
 RCES) at KTH\, has served on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on A
 utomatic Control\, and is currently Associate Editor of the IFAC Journal A
 utomatica.\n
