The Bristol Cyber Security Group has a state-of-the-art, large scale testbed, providing a realistic environment for our research into cyber-physical systems security. It has been built from the ground up, based on extensive past experience of building ICS security testbeds and input from industry partners.
The testbed infrastructure includes:
-
Multiple physical and virtual processes
Including a water treatment plant, model factory and building management system, each within distinct, centrally managed field sites.
-
Physical industrial control hardware
Sourced from a number of vendors including the latest devices with the newest protocols.
-
Fully-realised experimental network environment
Covering both the IT and OT network environments, with comprehensive data capture abilities.
-
Training and prototyping environment
Comprehensive fully simulated environments and small scale physical testbeds.
-
ICS training boxes
Designed and built in-house.
-
Remote field site with physical process
Mobile and self-contained.
-
Federated architecture
Allowing for granular integration of remote testbed/control structures to enable large scale and diverse experimentation.
-
Our own workshop
Including 3D-print capabilities for rapid prototyping.
-
Access to the electrical engineering workshop team
For design and building of testbed infrastructure.
-
Cyber Range
Consisting of servers and networking equipment to host virtual machines, software & network simulators and traffic generators to enable a more realistic environment for modelling cyber attacks, countermeasures and digital twins as well as linking up with other facilities.
-
Hardware-In-the-Loop
Our Typhoon HIL 606 device enables us to model and control the whole power plant, while connecting to and testing our own controllers and protocols.
-
Agritech testbed
The first of its kind, exploring IIOT device security in agriculture with 3 main components: Herd management, Milking parlour, Ventilation.
