Stanford Seminar - Virtual & Mixed Reality for Security of Critical City-Scale Cyber-Physical Systems

Explore a Stanford seminar on virtual and mixed reality applications for securing critical city-scale cyber-physical systems. Dive into VVateR, a virtual 3D world for visualizing cyber-physical systems like city-wide water treatment and distribution plants. Learn how this innovative tool enables visualization of cyber-attacks, resulting process anomalies, and anomaly detection. Discover VVateR's operational connection to two fully functional plants: SWaT (water treatment) and WADI (water distribution). Understand how users can interact with the plant in virtual space using VR headsets, facilitating remote worldwide research collaboration and capturing context in industrial settings. Explore how VVateR helps visualize infrastructure interconnectedness and the effects of cyber-physical attacks through safe, virtual testing of complex scenarios. Gain insights into how observing historical plant operations and attack paths at various timelapse rates enhances reconnaissance and incident analysis. Learn about VVateR's potential as a Digital Twin for developing attack/defense scenarios and gamified training challenges. Understand how these advancements contribute to increased preparedness for operators, policymakers, governments, and stakeholders in strengthening city security and critical infrastructure design. Additionally, get an overview of other relevant projects being conducted at iTrust.
