Smart Water Distribution System Communication Architecture Risk Analysis Using Formal Methods

Given the rapid development of systems with critical infrastructures, the chances of cyber-attacks are also growing. As the smart water distribution system is one of such structures, security concerns play a significant role in the process of designing them. This paper presents a risk analysis of smart water distribution system example architecture through threat modeling and model checking. The results of the model checking process demonstrate how security requirements can be achieved in a Security-by-Design approach.
