Title
Attack Detection In Stochastic Interconnected Systems: Centralized Vs Decentralized Detectors
Abstract
In this paper we consider a security problem for stochastic interconnected systems, where the objective is to detect attacks on the system dynamics from sparse measurements. We consider two classes of detectors, namely centralized and decentralized detectors, which differ primarily in their knowledge of the system model. In particular, a decentralized detector has a model of the dynamics of the isolated subsystems, but is unaware of the interconnections between them. Instead, a centralized detector has a model of the entire dynamical system. We characterize the performance of the two detectors, and show that, depending on the systems parameters and attack strategy, each of the detectors can outperform the other. In other words, it may be possible for a decentralized detector to outperform a centralized detector, which, as we discuss, is due to the considered hypothesis testing problem. Finally, we illustrate our results through a set of numerical examples.
