Abstract

This paper presents the design, development, and validation of an ontology based SCADA intrusion detection

system. The proposed system analyses SCADA network communications and can derive additional information

based on the background knowledge and ontology models to enhance the intrusion detection data.

The developed intrusion model captures network communications, cyber attacks and the context within the

SCADA domain. Moreover, a set of semantic rules were constructed to detect various attacks and extract logical

relationships among these attacks. The presented framework was extensively evaluated and a comparison

to the state of the art is provided.
