Presentation at the 2016 IIOT Challenges and Opportunities Workshop.
The next wave of Industrial Internet applications will connect machines and devices together into functioning, intelligent systems with capabilities beyond anything possible today. These systems fundamentally depend on connectivity and information exchange to derive knowledge and make "smart decisions". They require a much higher level of reliability and security than "Consumer" IoT applications. OMG's Data-Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems (DDS) is the premier open middleware standard directly addressing publish-subscribe communications for Industrial IoT applications. It provides a protocol that meets the demanding security, scalability, performance, and Quality of Service requirements of IIoT applications spanning connected machines, enterprise systems, and mobile devices.This presentation will use concrete use cases to introduce DDS and examine why energy, advanced medical, asset-tracking, transportation, and military systems choose to base their designs on DDS.
Cloud security From Infrastructure to People-wareTzar Umang
Understand Cloud Security in every level from infrastructure to people ware via understanding threats, hardening your servers and creating policies that will users be guided on securing themselves.
The Industrial IoT depends on connectivity and information exchange. Much of the business value derives from the ability to have independent systems share information in order to derive knowledge, make "smart decisions", and offer behavior and functionality never before possible.
Many industrial systems were designed with a focus on reliability and safety at a time were implicit trust of all components and communication was the norm. Restricting physical access is currently the only practical method for protecting this existing critical infrastructure. This includes the electrical power grid, process control, transportation, or manufacturing systems. This is changing with increased connectivity to the Internet and personal computers as well as awareness of malicious insider threats. Many industrial systems are being (or want to be) connected to external networks using standard technologies like Ethernet and the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/UDP/IP). These technologies make systems more functional and efficient, unfortunately they also open the critical infrastructure to cyber attacks.
New IIoT Systems are being designed with security as a key concern. New systems can leverage a solid set of security technologies and building blocks for Authentication, Cryptography, Integrity, etc. However these security technologies must be used correctly and in ways that do not disrupt the performance or access to the legitimate applications/devices, yet limit legitimate access to just the needed information (to minimize the insider threats) and denies access to all others. Adding to this difficulties the new systems need to co-exist and (securely) exchange information with the already-deployed legacy systems which were built without such security elements.
Secure DDS (a recent standard from the OMG) is a "secure connectivity middleware" technology that can be used to address these three needs: (1) Build modern secure IIoT systems, (2) Secure legacy Industrial systems being connected on the Internet, and (3) Securely bridge between new and legacy systems. Secure DDS extends the proven Data-Distribution Service (DDS) and Real-Time Publish-Subscribe Protocol (DDS-RTPS) standards with enterprise-grade authentication, encryption and fine-grained security controls while maintaining the peer-to-peer, robustness and scalability features (including secure multicast) that have made DDS a clear choice for critical infrastructure systems.
This presentation introduces the DDS Security specification and provide describe several use-cases that exemplify how these standards are deployed in real-world applications.
This document discusses data distribution service (DDS) security for the industrial internet of things (IIoT). It provides background on DDS and the IIoT. It then discusses how DDS security works, including pluggable security architectures, authentication, access control, and message security. The goal of DDS security is to prevent unauthorized access to data in the global data space shared by DDS applications. Built-in security capabilities include X.509 authentication, access control configuration, and encryption/message authentication algorithms.
The on-going emergence of advanced persistent threats (APTs) and other sophisticated attacks have made it more difficult than ever to develop strategies for protecting IT systems. Further, the systems themselves are increasingly complex, increasing the potential for security gaps. In this deck, Garve Hays - Solution Acrhitect at NetIQ, outlines APTs and evaluating effective responses.
This document provides a summary of core security requirements for cloud computing. It discusses the need to plan for security in cloud environments given issues like multi-tenancy, availability, confidentiality, and integrity. Specific requirements mentioned include secure access and separation of resources for multi-tenancy, assurances around availability, strong identity management, encryption of data at rest and in motion, and checks to ensure data integrity. The document emphasizes the importance of independent audits of cloud providers and having clear expectations around security requirements and notifications of any failures to meet requirements.

MEKDA: Multi-Level ECC based Key Distribution and Authentication in Internet ...IJCNCJournal
The Internet of Things (IoT) is an extensive system of networks and connected devices with minimal human interaction and swift growth. The constraints of the System and limitations of Devices pose several challenges, including security; hence billions of devices must protect from attacks and compromises. The resource-constrained nature of IoT devices amplifies security challenges. Thus standard data communication and security measures are inefficient in the IoT environment. The ubiquity of IoT devices and their deployment in sensitive applications increase the vulnerability of any security breaches to risk lives. Hence, IoT-related security challenges are of great concern. Authentication is the solution to the vulnerability of a malicious device in the IoT environment. The proposed Multi-level Elliptic Curve Cryptography based Key Distribution and Authentication in IoT enhances the security by Multi-level Authentication when the devices enter or exit the Cluster in an IoT system. The decreased Computation Time and Energy Consumption by generating and distributing Keys using Elliptic Curve Cryptography extends the availability of the IoT devices. The Performance analysis shows the improvement over the Fast Authentication and Data Transfer method.
The cloud offers simplified application development and delivery by providing infrastructure, platform and software services that are ready to use immediately.

Introduction to Operational Technology 0.1Richard Hudson
The document discusses considerations for operational technology and open source as enablers for Internet of Things (IoT) interoperability. It addresses challenges in integrating operational technology (OT) due to siloed IT/OT activities and competing standards. Three key enablers for interoperability are identified: data models, application programming interfaces, and protocol stacks. Open source frameworks are presented as a solution for device integration through their design for interoperability. Examples of open source implementations that can enable OT across devices, networks, and cloud platforms are also provided.
In the last few years, cloud computing has grown from being a promising business concept to one of the fastest growing segments of the IT industry. Now, recession-hit companies are increasingly realizing that simply by tapping into the cloud they can gain fast access to best-of-breed business applications or drastically boost their infrastructure resources, all at negligible cost. But as more and more information on individuals and companies is placed in the cloud, concerns are beginning to grow about just how safe an environment it is. This paper discusses security issues, requirements and challenges that cloud service providers (CSP) face during cloud engineering. Recommended security standards and management models to address these are suggested for technical and business community.
This document summarizes information security in cloud computing. It begins by introducing cloud computing and noting that information security is a critical risk for organizations moving to the cloud. It then classifies cloud security based on the three cloud service models of SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS. For each type of security, attributes are identified and some of the world's major cloud service providers are compared. Infrastructure security, application security, and information security like data storage and privacy security are discussed. Several tables provide comparisons of cloud service providers for different security areas. Recommendations are made for organizations choosing cloud providers regarding information security.

Trust based Mechanism for Secure Cloud Computing Environment: A Surveyinventionjournals
Ubiquitous computing has revolutionized interaction of humans and machines. Cloud computing has been mainly used for storing data and various computational purposes. It has changed the face of using the internet. But, as we know every technology has its pros and cons. Securing cloud environment is the most challenging issue for the researchers and developers. Main aspects which cloud security should cover are authentication, authorization, data protection etc. Establishing trust between cloud service providers (CSP) is the biggest challenge, when someone is discussing about cloud security. Trust is a critical factor which mainly depends on perception of reputation and self-assessment done by both user and CSP. The trust model can act as security strength evaluator and ranking service for cloud application and services. For establishing trust relationship between two parties, mutual trust mechanism is reliable, as it does verification from both sides. There are various trust models which mainly focuses on securing one party i.e., they validate either user or service node. In this survey paper, the study of various trust models and their various parameters are discussed.

This document discusses cloud computing and security considerations for organizations adopting cloud services. It makes three key points:
1. Cloud computing provides on-demand delivery of computing resources but also poses new security risks and challenges for organizations related to loss of control of data and infrastructure. A holistic risk management approach is needed.
2. Key security considerations for organizations adopting cloud services include understanding compliance requirements, performing risk assessments of cloud assets, validating information lifecycles, ensuring data security, and establishing security agreements with cloud providers.
3. As organizations lose control of their data and infrastructure in the cloud, new strategies are needed to ensure data portability between cloud providers, availability of audit controls, and proper management of data
I want to thank everyone who attended this presentation at AFCOM Data Center World Fall 2011 in Orlando, FL.
Studies show the number of data centers deploying virtual cloud computing will rapidly increase in the next five years. Other studies show that the number of Internet attacks and their level of sophistication will also grow significantly. This session identifies approaches to reduce the risk of business disruptions resulting from inadequate virtual security controls in a data center. It will cover utilizing best practices for security configurations, measuring information security status, and making rational decisions about security investments.

Detailed Analysis of Security Challenges in the Domain of Hybrid CloudIRJET Journal
This document discusses security challenges in hybrid cloud computing. It begins by defining hybrid clouds and describing their increasing use by major organizations. The main security challenges discussed include ensuring compliance, protecting data privacy across private and public clouds, managing risks associated with loss of control over data in public clouds, and protecting against distributed denial-of-service attacks. Several security solutions for hybrid clouds are then outlined, such as using virtual private clouds, OpenVPN, OpenCitrix, CloudKnox, and Guardicore Centra to securely connect private infrastructure to public clouds.
The Secure Path to Value in the Cloud by Denny HeaberlinCloud Expo
Even as cloud and managed services grow increasingly central to business strategy and performance, challenges remain. The biggest sticking point for companies seeking to capitalize on the cloud is data security. Keeping data safe is an issue in any computing environment, and it has been a focus since the earliest days of the cloud revolution. Understandably so: a lot can go wrong when you allow valuable information to live outside the firewall. Recent revelations about government snooping, along with a steady stream of well-publicized data breaches, only add to the uncertainty.
In his session at 16th Cloud Expo, Denny Heaberlin, Security Product Manager with Windstream's Cloud and Data Center Marketing team, discussed how to manage these concerns and how choose the right cloud vendor, an essential part of any cloud strategy.

Navigating the Horizon: The Evolution of the IT Industry and the Odyssey to S...IRJET Journal
This document provides a summary of the evolution of the IT industry and cloud security. It discusses how the IT industry has advanced significantly from businesses managing their own infrastructure to leveraging cloud computing resources. While cloud computing provides benefits like scalability and cost savings, it also presents security issues as businesses share data with third parties in the cloud. The document then examines how major cloud providers like AWS, GCP, IBM Cloud and Microsoft Azure employ security best practices based on a shared responsibility model between the provider and customer. It emphasizes the importance of practices like encryption, identity and access management, audits and compliance to cloud security. Overall, the document traces the development of cloud security alongside the growth of the IT industry and cloud computing.
The document discusses several limitations of IoT-enabled automation solutions:
1. Cybersecurity and privacy concerns are significant as more devices are connected and hackers can more easily access building functions by exploiting vulnerabilities.
2. Lack of integration and interoperability standards means buildings use multiple incompatible protocols, increasing costs.
3. Data capturing and processing has limitations due to the expense of comprehensive sensor deployment and expert analysis needed to derive value from data.
Generic Security Framework for Multiple Heterogeneous Virtual InfrastructuresIJRES Journal
Virtualization continues to take center stage at IT industry, yet many organizations are finding it difficult to secure virtualized environments. Security is a critical component in the growing IT system surrounding virtualization. Many organizations find the security challenges associated with virtualization to be a major hurdle, companies of all kinds across all industries are looking towards addressing business and security needs in the virtual infrastructure. There are many research work done before about how to check the compliance status of the cloud platform, not of the virtual machines running on the platform. This paper proposes the security framework for multiple heterogeneous virtual machines which assess the compliance security of the virtual machines. In this paper we make use of REST APIs, using which we create remote session on the virtual machines and fetch the machine values which will be parsed to get the required values for assessment.
Similar to Industrial IOT Data Connectivity Standard (20)
DDS Security Version 1.2 was adopted in 2024. This revision strengthens support for long runnings systems adding new cryptographic algorithms, certificate revocation, and hardness against DoS attacks.
From its first use case that enabled distributed communications for US Navy ships to the autonomous systems of today, the DDS family of standards has enabled new generations of applications to run reliably, rapidly and securely, regardless of distance or scale.
To commemorate the 20th year milestone, the DDS Foundation is creating presentations that highlight the 14 specifications in the DDS standard, along with selected real-world use cases.
This presentation introduces some of the original use-cases and experiments, along with a brief history of the Standards.

Introduction to DDS: Context, Information Model, Security, and Applications.Gerardo Pardo-Castellote
Introduction to the Data-Distribution Service (DDS): Context and Applications.
This 50 minute presentation summarizes the main features of DDS including the information model, the type system, and security as well as how typical applications use DDS.
It was presented at the Canadian Government Information Day in Ottawa on September 2018.
There is also a video of this presentation at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iICap5G7rw.
This Object Management Group (OMG) RFP solicits submissions identifying and defining mechanisms to achieve integration between DDS infrastructures and TSN networks. The goal is to provide all artifacts needed to support the design, deployment and execution of DDS systems over TSN networks.
The DDS-TSN integration specification sought shall realize the following functionality:
● Define mechanisms that provide the information required for TSN-enabled networks to calculate any network schedules needed to deploy a DDS system.
OMG RFP
● Identify those parts of the set of the IEEE TSN standards that are relevant for a DDS-TSN integration and indicate how the DDS aspects are mapped onto, or related to, the associated TSN aspects. Examples include TSN- standardized information models for calculating system-wide schedules and configuring network equipment.
● Identify and specify necessary extensions to the [DDSI-RTPS] and [DDS- SECURITY] specifications, if any, to allow DDS infrastructures to use TSN- enabled networks as their transport while maintaining interoperability between different DDS implementations.
● Identify and specify necessary extensions to the DDS and DDS- XML specification, if any, to allow declaration of TSN-specific properties or quality of service attributes.
A NEW ARCHITECTURE PROPOSAL TO INTEGRATE OPC UA, DDS & TSN.
Suppliers and end users need a complete solution to address the complexity of future industrial automation systems. These systems require:
• Interoperability to allow devices and independent software applications from multiple suppliers to work together seamlessly
• Extensibility to incorporate future large or intelligent systems
• Performance and flexibility to handle challenging deployments and use cases
• Robustness to guarantee continuity of operation despite partial failures
• Integrity and fine-grained security to protect against cyber attacks
• Widespread support for an industry standard
This document proposes a new technical architecture to build this future. The design combines the best of the OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA), Data Distribution Service (DDS), and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standards. It will connect the factory floor to the enterprise, sensors to cloud, and real-time devices to work cells. This proposal aims to define and standardize the architecture to unify the industry.
The document provides an overview of the DDS-XRCE specification, which defines an Agent-Client communication model to enable the use of the DDS data distribution service (DDS) in extremely resource-constrained networks. It describes the motivation for DDS-XRCE and its key aspects, including the message structure, interaction model, supported deployment scenarios, and how it provides security through the use of a client key.
The document describes a demonstration of interoperability between 5 vendor DDS security implementations using a shapes demo application. The demo consists of 6 scenarios that illustrate different aspects of DDS security configuration and functionality, including controlling access to the domain, enabling open access to selected topics, comparing data integrity vs encryption, protecting metadata, securing discovery, and fine-grained access control at the topic level. Each scenario varies the security governance and permission files to achieve the desired access control configuration.
Applying MBSE to the Industrial IoT: Using SysML with Connext DDS and SimulinkGerardo Pardo-Castellote
This document summarizes a presentation about applying model-based systems engineering (MBSE) to industrial internet of things (IIoT) systems using the SysML modeling language, Connext DDS middleware, and Simulink. It discusses how SysML can be used to design interfaces, applications, and quality of service policies for DDS-connected systems. The presentation also provides examples of integrating MagicDraw, Simulink, and Connext DDS to enable translating SysML models into implementations and deployments of distributed IIoT applications and components.
One of the most important challenges that system designers and system integrators face when deploying complex Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) systems is the integration of different connectivity solutions and standards. At RTI, we are constantly working to accelerate the Industrial IoT revolution. Over the past few years, we have developed standard connectivity gateways to ensure that DDS systems can easily integrate with other core connectivity frameworks.
This year, we developed a standard OPC UA/DDS Gateway, a bridge between two of the most well-known Industrial IoT connectivity frameworks. We are excited to announce that the gateway was just adopted by the Object Management Group (OMG).
In this webinar, we will dive deeper into the importance of choosing a baseline core connectivity standard for the Industrial IoT and how to ensure all system components are fully integrated. Attendees will also learn:
How the OPC UA/DDS Gateway specification was developed and how it works
How to leverage the Gateway to enable DDS and OPC UA applications to interoperate transparently
About the first standard connectivity gateway released with RTI Web Integration Service in Connext DDS 5.3
Gateways are a critical component of system interoperability and we will keep working to help companies accelerate Industrial IoT adoption.
This document defines an OPC UA/DDS gateway specification. It specifies how to bridge the OPC UA and DDS protocols by defining mappings between their data models, type systems and core services. This includes mapping OPC UA data types, services and subscriptions to DDS data types and topics as well as mapping DDS data types and the global data space to OPC UA address space objects. Configuration formats are also defined to allow configuration of OPC UA to DDS and DDS to OPC UA bridges.
This is the DDS-XRCE 1.0 Beta specification adopted by the OMG March 2018.
The purpose of DDS-XRCE is to enable resource-constrained devices to participate in DDS communication, while at the same time allowing those devices to be disconnected for long periods of time but still be discoverable by other DDS applications.
DDS-XRCE defines a wire protocol, the DDS-XRCE protocol, to be used between an XRCE Client and XRCE Agent. The XRCE Agent is a DDS Participant in the DDS Global Data Space. The DDS-XRCE protocol allows the client to use the XRCE Agent as a proxy in order to produce and consume data in the DDS Global Data Space.
Demonstrates interoperability of 5 independent products that implement the Data-Distribution Service (DDS) Security Standard
(https://www.omg.org/spec/DDS-SECURITY/).
Tests the following implementations: RTI Connext DDS, Twin Oaks Computing CoreDX DDS, Kongsberg InterComm DDS, ADLink Vortex DDS Cafe, and Object Computing Inc OpenDDS.
Demonstrates interoperability of 3 independent products that implement the Data-Distribution Service (DDS) Security Standard
(https://www.omg.org/spec/DDS-SECURITY/).
Tests the following implementations: RTI Connext DDS, Twin Oaks Computing CoreDX DDS, and Kongsberg InterComm DDS.
This specification provides the following additional facilities to DDS [DDS] implementations and users:
* Type System. The specification defines a model of the data types that can be used for DDS Topics. The type system is formally defined using UML. The Type System is de- fined in section 7.2 and its subsections. The structural model of this system is defined in the Type System Model in section 7.2.2. The framework under which types can be modi- fied over time is summarized in section 7.2.3, “Type Extensibility and Mutability.” The concrete rules under which the concepts from 7.2.2 and 7.2.3 come together to define compatibility in the face of such modifications are defined in section 7.2.4, “Type Com- patibility.”
* Type Representations. The specification defines the ways in which types described by the Type System may be externalized such that they can be stored in a file or communi- cated over a network. The specification adds additional Type Representations beyond the
DDS-XTypes version 1.2 1
one (IDL [IDL41]) already implied by the DDS specification. Several Type Representa- tions are specified in the subsections of section 7.3. These include IDL (7.3.1), XML (7.3.2), XML Schema (XSD) (7.3.3), and TypeObject (7.3.4).
* Data Representation. The specification defines multiple ways in which objects of the types defined by the Type System may be externalized such that they can be stored in a file or communicated over a network. (This is also commonly referred as “data serializa- tion” or “data marshaling.”) The specification extends and generalizes the mechanisms already defined by the DDS Interoperability specification [RTPS]. The specification in- cludes Data Representations that support data type evolution, that is, allow a data type to change in certain well-defined ways without breaking communication. Two Data Repre- sentations are specified in the subsections of section 7.4. These are Extended CDR (7.4.1, 7.4.2, and 7.4.3) and XML (7.4.4).
* Language Binding. The specification defines multiple ways in which applications can access the state of objects defined by the Type System. The submission extends and gen- eralizes the mechanism currently implied by the DDS specification (“Plain Language Binding”) and adds a Dynamic Language Binding that allows application to access data without compile-time knowledge of its type. The specification also defines an API to de- fine and manipulate data types programmatically. Two Language Bindings are specified in the subsections of section 7.5. These are the Plain Language Binding and the Dynamic Language Binding.
The document describes version 1.1 of the DDS Security specification which defines a security model and plugin architecture to provide information assurance capabilities to DDS implementations, including defining builtin plugins for authentication, access control, encryption, and logging; it also lists normative references and provides an overview of the specification's scope and conformance points.
This document describes the Interface Definition Language (IDL) version 4.2 specification published by the Object Management Group (OMG). It defines the syntax and semantics of IDL, which is used to define interfaces, data types, exceptions, modules and other elements used in CORBA, CCM, and other OMG specifications. The document includes sections on lexical conventions, grammar, scoping rules, standardized annotations, and CORBA/CCM profiles supported by IDL. It is intended to provide a standard way to define interfaces that are independent of specific programming languages.
This the the formal version 1.0 of the DDS Security specification released September 2016. OMG document number formal/2016-08-01.
DDS-Security defines the Security Model and Service Plugin Interface (SPI) architecture for compliant DDS implementations.
The DDS Security Model is enforced by the invocation of these SPIs by the DDS implementation. This specification also defines a set of builtin implementations of these SPIs.
* The specified builtin SPI implementations enable out-of-the box security and interoperability between compliant DDS applications.
* The use of SPIs allows DDS users to customize the behavior and technologies that the DDS implementations use for Information Assurance, specifically customization of Authentication, Access Control, Encryption, Message Authentication, Digital Signing, Logging and Data Tagging.
This specification is a response to the OMG RFP "eXtremely Resource Constrained Environments DDS (DDS- XRCE)"
It defines a DDS-XRCE Service based on a client-server protocol between a resource constrained, low-powered device (client) and an Agent (the server) that enables the device to communicate with a DDS network and publish and subscribe to topics in a DDS domain. The specifications purpose and scope is to ensure that applications based on different vendor’ implementations of the DDS-XRCE Service are compatible and interoperable.
This is the Joint submission by RTI, TwinOaks, and eProsima. Updated September 2017, OMG document number mars/2017-09-18.

Streamlining End-to-End Testing Automation with Azure DevOps Build & Release Pipelines
Automating end-to-end (e2e) test for Android and iOS native apps, and web apps, within Azure build and release pipelines, poses several challenges. This session dives into the key challenges and the repeatable solutions implemented across multiple teams at a leading Indian telecom disruptor, renowned for its affordable 4G/5G services, digital platforms, and broadband connectivity.
Challenge #1. Ensuring Test Environment Consistency: Establishing a standardized test execution environment across hundreds of Azure DevOps agents is crucial for achieving dependable testing results. This uniformity must seamlessly span from Build pipelines to various stages of the Release pipeline.
Challenge #2. Coordinated Test Execution Across Environments: Executing distinct subsets of tests using the same automation framework across diverse environments, such as the build pipeline and specific stages of the Release Pipeline, demands flexible and cohesive approaches.
Challenge #3. Testing on Linux-based Azure DevOps Agents: Conducting tests, particularly for web and native apps, on Azure DevOps Linux agents lacking browser or device connectivity presents specific challenges in attaining thorough testing coverage.
This session delves into how these challenges were addressed through:
1. Automate the setup of essential dependencies to ensure a consistent testing environment.
2. Create standardized templates for executing API tests, API workflow tests, and end-to-end tests in the Build pipeline, streamlining the testing process.
3. Implement task groups in Release pipeline stages to facilitate the execution of tests, ensuring consistency and efficiency across deployment phases.
4. Deploy browsers within Docker containers for web application testing, enhancing portability and scalability of testing environments.
5. Leverage diverse device farms dedicated to Android, iOS, and browser testing to cover a wide range of platforms and devices.
6. Integrate AI technology, such as Applitools Visual AI and Ultrafast Grid, to automate test execution and validation, improving accuracy and efficiency.
7. Utilize AI/ML-powered central test automation reporting server through platforms like reportportal.io, providing consolidated and real-time insights into test performance and issues.
These solutions not only facilitate comprehensive testing across platforms but also promote the principles of shift-left testing, enabling early feedback, implementing quality gates, and ensuring repeatability. By adopting these techniques, teams can effectively automate and execute tests, accelerating software delivery while upholding high-quality standards across Android, iOS, and web applications.
