Developing a Cybersecurity Immune System for Industry 4.0


Book Description

Cyber immune systems try to mimic the adaptive immune system of humans and animals because of its capability to detect and fend off new, unseen pathogens. Today's current cyber security systems provide an effective defense mechanism against known cyber-attacks but are not so good when it comes to defending against unknown attacks. This book describes the possible development and organization of self-healing computing based on cyber immunity techniques and aimed at working in the new realm of Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 is the trend towards automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies and processes which include cyber-physical systems (CPS), the internet of things (IoT), industrial internet of things (IIOT), cloud computing, cognitive computing and artificial intelligence. The book describes the author’s research and development of cyber-immunity systems that will prevent the destruction of critical information infrastructure by future unknown cyber-attacks and thus avoid the significant or catastrophic consequences of such attacks. The book is designed for undergraduate and post-graduate students, for engineers in related fields as well as managers of corporate and state structures, chief information officers (CIO), chief information security officers (CISO), architects, and research engineers in the field of cybersecurity. This book contains four chapters1. Cyber Immunity Concept of the Industry 4.0; 2. Mathematical Framework for Immune Protection of Industry 4.0; 3. Trends and prospects of the development of Immune Protection of Industry 4.0; 4. From detecting cyber-attacks to self-healing Industry 4.0;

Developing an Enterprise Continuity Program


Book Description

The book discusses the activities involved in developing an Enterprise Continuity Program (ECP) that will cover both Business Continuity Management (BCM) as well as Disaster Recovery Management (DRM). The creation of quantitative metrics for BCM are discussed as well as several models and methods that correspond to the goals and objectives of the International Standards Organisation (ISO) Technical Committee ISO/TC 292 "Security and resilience”. Significantly, the book contains the results of not only qualitative, but also quantitative, measures of Cyber Resilience which for the first time regulates organizations’ activities on protecting their critical information infrastructure. The book discusses the recommendations of the ISO 22301: 2019 standard “Security and resilience — Business continuity management systems — Requirements” for improving the BCM of organizations based on the well-known “Plan-Do-Check-Act” (PDCA) model. It also discusses the recommendations of the following ISO management systems standards that are widely used to support BCM. The ISO 9001 standard "Quality Management Systems"; ISO 14001 "Environmental Management Systems"; ISO 31000 "Risk Management", ISO/IEC 20000-1 "Information Technology - Service Management", ISO/IEC 27001 "Information Management security systems”, ISO 28000 “Specification for security management systems for the supply chain”, ASIS ORM.1-2017, NIST SP800-34, NFPA 1600: 2019, COBIT 2019, RESILIA, ITIL V4 and MOF 4.0, etc. The book expands on the best practices of the British Business Continuity Institute’s Good Practice Guidelines (2018 Edition), along with guidance from the Disaster Recovery Institute’s Professional Practices for Business Continuity Management (2017 Edition). Possible methods of conducting ECP projects in the field of BCM are considered in detail. Based on the practical experience of the author there are examples of Risk Assessment (RA) and Business Impact Analysis (BIA), examples of Business Continuity Plans (BCP) & Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP) and relevant BCP & DRP testing plans. This book will be useful to Chief Information Security Officers, internal and external Certified Information Systems Auditors, senior managers within companies who are responsible for ensuring business continuity and cyber stability, as well as teachers and students of MBA’s, CIO and CSO programs.

Integrating Generative AI in Education to Achieve Sustainable Development Goals


Book Description

A new challenge has become present in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The fundamental nature of education, a vital element for advancing the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), now grapples with the transformative impact of AI technologies. As we stand at this intersection of progress and pedagogy, critical questions surface about the future roles of educators and the integrity of assessment processes. AI’s rapid progression prompts an exploration of the competencies our education systems must cultivate in a world where human and machine intelligence are becoming increasingly interconnected. Against this backdrop of transformative uncertainty, Integrating Generative AI in Education to Achieve Sustainable Development Goals addresses profound challenges and offers promising solutions at the crossroads of AI and education. This book assembles distinguished academics, researchers, and practitioners, forming a collective voice on the intersection of Generative AI and education. The three-part structure dissects the technical aspects of AI-powered innovations in educational design, explores multidisciplinary applications enhancing educational content, and highlights AI-driven solutions to address equality and inclusion concerns within educational systems. The book also underscores the importance of ethical considerations of generative AI to ensure a future where technology serves the broader goals of sustainability and equitable education.







Systems Engineering and Artificial Intelligence


Book Description

This book provides a broad overview of the benefits from a Systems Engineering design philosophy in architecting complex systems composed of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and humans situated in chaotic environments. The major topics include emergence, verification and validation of systems using AI/ML and human systems integration to develop robust and effective human-machine teams—where the machines may have varying degrees of autonomy due to the sophistication of their embedded AI/ML. The chapters not only describe what has been learned, but also raise questions that must be answered to further advance the general Science of Autonomy. The science of how humans and machines operate as a team requires insights from, among others, disciplines such as the social sciences, national and international jurisprudence, ethics and policy, and sociology and psychology. The social sciences inform how context is constructed, how trust is affected when humans and machines depend upon each other and how human-machine teams need a shared language of explanation. National and international jurisprudence determine legal responsibilities of non-trivial human-machine failures, ethical standards shape global policy, and sociology provides a basis for understanding team norms across cultures. Insights from psychology may help us to understand the negative impact on humans if AI/ML based machines begin to outperform their human teammates and consequently diminish their value or importance. This book invites professionals and the curious alike to witness a new frontier open as the Science of Autonomy emerges.
