Introduction

The book gives a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of cyber-physical systems (CPS) with a primary focus on security challenges and innovative solutions. CPS, encompassing a wide array of applications from e-Health to smart grid and industry automation, is explored in depth through eight edited reviews.

The book starts with an exploration of various threat detection and prevention techniques in IoT environments, followed by discussions on security in smart grid cyber-physical systems, and the integration of cyber-physical systems with game theory. It also covers important topics such as cyber-physical systems in healthcare, augmented reality challenges, network and computer forensic frameworks, and a review of industrial critical infrastructure perspectives.

The journey from traditional data warehouses to data lakes is thoroughly examined, shedding light on the evolution of data storage methods. The final chapter explains intrusion detection in industrial critical infrastructure, reviewing feature selection and classification models. By navigating through these topics, the book equips readers with a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity challenges and solutions in an era of automation and IoT technologies.

This book is intended for a diverse readership, including professionals, researchers, and technology enthusiasts keen on exploring the intricacies of CPS, IoT security, data storage evolution, and industrial infrastructure protection.

Preface

This book aims to address the challenges prevailing in Cyber-Physical Systems by providing promising solutions through innovative techniques and thereby safeguarding the digital environment. A computer system that uses computer-based algorithms to control or monitor a mechanism is notoriously known as a Cyber-Physical System (CPS). A broader range of services and applications are available due to the rapid development of CPS in recent years including e-Health, e-Commerce, UAV, game theory, smart grid, and industry automation that influences people's lives in various ways.

The information in this book offers numerous techniques and methods that address various security concerns in the field of automation and cyber-physical world. Precautionary and preventive measures are discussed with organized examples. Analytical approach to Rescue Automation from External Assaults, Analysis of Various Threat Detection and Prevention Techniques in IoT Environment, Security in Smart Grid Cyber-Physical System, Cyber Physical Systems in Clinical Setting, Cyber Physical Systems and Game Theory Integration, Cyber-Physical Systems in HealthCare, Augmented reality in Cyber-Physical System: Challenges and Concerns, Comprehensive Study on Network and Computer Forensic Framework and A Review on Industrial Critical Infrastructure Perspective have all been thoroughly covered. By enabling readers to understand and use Cyber Physical Systems technology in a safe manner in an insecure environment, we the editors think that this book will undoubtedly be useful to academics, researchers, students, and industry professionals.

We would like to sincerely thank our reviewers for their assistance despite their busy schedules.
