Title
Systematic development of scenarios caused by cyber-attack-induced human errors in nuclear power plants.
Abstract
•To find out the consequences resulting from wrong operator actions due to a cyber-attack, a method to develop a fault tree (FT) for cyber-attacks was suggested.•These wrong actions were obtained by analyzing an emergency operating procedure. The wrong actions of the operator were added as basic events in the existing probabilistic safety assessment model.•The minimal cut sets (MCSs) consisting of the basic events related to cyber-attacks can be obtained by post processing. These MCSs represent the cyber-attack scenarios which lead to core damage without other random events.•As a case study, the feed-and-bleed operation was analyzed using the developed FT and some scenarios which lead to core damage were derived. The results of this study can be used in a penetration test plan generation.
