Due to the high level of network integration, CPS pose new targets to remote code reuse attacks, such as Return-Oriented Programming (ROP). An effective mechanism to detect code-reuse attacks is Control-Flow Integrity (CFI). Despite imposing a significant overhead on the overall system, our approach reliably protects the control-flow of the monitored application, while guaranteeing its real-time constraints. We evaluate our solution by analyzing its timing impact and discussing the resulting considerations for the integration and practical deployment in a Safety-critical CPS.Towards Host Intrusion Detection for embedded Industrial Systems wp-hids | PDF (0.4 MB), Oct 2020 - Original Equipment Manufacturers now embed hardware virtualization in car equipments to reduce costs and hardware complexity, while allowing more functionalities, such as connectivity. This paper presents a novel runtime Security solution for embedded mixed-criticality systems, which integrates HIDS in a partitioned system based on Multiple Independent Levels of Security (MILS) architecture. Our HIDS monitors a program’s execution by observing both hardware and software signals; there is to our knowledge no HIDS providing such precise representation of program execution.Separation Kernel-based Systems with High Availability for embedded Safety-critical Systems wp-ha | PDF (0.4 MB), Jul 2020 - High availability (HA) is a property of Safety-critical systems in order to detect failures and recover from those, while still keeping the system’s main functionality active without interruption. In this paper we will examine the use cases and how these can be managed if the main core of the system’s computational capabilities is based on a Separation Kernel OS.PikeOS Multi-Core Features and CAST-32A Compliance wp-cast32a | PDF (0.3 MB), Nov 2019 - This document discusses potential problems related to the use of multi-core processors in Safety-critical applications. In addition, it provides ideas for platform specific extensions to support the customer during the integration phase to measure interference on shared platform resources like platform memory and shared caches and to limit potentials during runtime.Safety Certification for unsafe COTS Platforms wp-cots | PDF (0.6 MB), May 2019 - This paper describes the aspects that need to be considered, when using complex (COTS) hardware in a Safety system for Railway applications.ARINC 653 RTOS for Multi-Core Certification wp-arinc653 | PDF (0.8 MB), Feb 2019 - This whitepaper is about ARINC 653 multicore certification and provides revealing details on the latest PikeOS currently in the process of being certified to DO-178C DAL A with dual-cores on a T2080 IMA system.Security by Design in Industry 4.0 wp-in40 | PDF (1.0 MB), May 2018 - The transition towards Industry 4.0 disrupts the conventional software development lifecycle of field-level devices. Adding features such as cloud connectivity to a PLC opens up a wealth of new possibilities on the shop floor, but the increased software complexity poses a risk for both Safety and Security. In this white paper, we show how the PikeOS separation kernel enables you to "divide and conquer" typical problems in Industry 4.0 device software architecture.RTOS Considerations for unmanned Air Vehicles wp-uav | PDF (1.0 MB), May 2018 - This whitepaper considers all aspects of autonomous unmanned aircraft, where autonomous means that the generic term "unmanned air vehicle" (UAV) has the capabilities built into the operational flight program (OFP) to be able to fly without human intervention. This paper will try to provide a historical progress of UAV technology, as well as combat aircraft (UCAV) through to modern perceptions and a look at future technology for autonomous drones.Safety-Critical Ethernet/AFDX® Network wp-sceth | PDF (0.5 MB), Dec 2017 - Aircraft and Avionics equipment are now more and more used in environments requiring communication with external world and are more and more exposed to potential attacks. This reason forces Avionics developers to consider Security processes to be applied during their design. Use this whitepaper to find out that managing both certification (Security and Safety) is not contradictory.Avionics Application: Security for Safety wp- | PDF (0.5 MB), Nov 2017 - Aircraft and Avionics equipment are now more and more used in environments requiring communication with external world and are more and more exposed to potential attacks. This reason forces Avionics developers to consider Security processes to be applied during their design. Use this whitepaper to find out that managing both certification (Security and Safety) is not contradictory.Successful Multi-Core Certification with Software Partitioning wp-mccpart | PDF (0.7 MB), Nov 2016 - This paper addresses the current state on multi-core certification in the industry mainly based on experiences from the Railway, Avionics and Automotive industry. It will address the certification aspects of multi-core based platforms with the focus on today's technologies and processes related to the new requirements of Avionics certification authorities for multi-core processors. The paper provides an overview of certification concerns on multi-core processors and possible answers which can be given by a multi-core supporting hypervisor operating system.Secure Update Architecture for High Assurance Mixed-Criticality System wp-uhamcs | PDF (0.5 MB), Sep 2016 - In this paper we demonstrate how a high assurance mixed-critical ECU can provide secure update functionality for various use-cases while preserving Safety guarantees. Safe Time-Partitioning Scheduling for certified Multi-Core Platforms wp-tpen50128 | PDF (0.7 MB), Sep 2015 - Scheduling a complex application scenario is an own area of science and handle by various scheduling schemes, which are optimized for specific use cases. Learn with this whitepaper how to use an adaptive time-partitioning scheduler for EN 50128 certified multi-core platforms.Multi-Levels safe and secure Solution for Industrial Automation wp-indauto | PDF (0.5 MB), Sep 2015 - This paper presents a Security system architecture and a framework where the processes, policies, and enforcement are strictly separated.
