Abstract
The rise of the connected objects known as the “Internet of Things” (IoT) will rival past technological marvels. This application discloses a novel cyber-attack mitigation technique for navigation and protection system of moving vehicles in cities, towns, country roads and freeways. The mitigation technique uses a signature stablished from all information data that received by navigation and protection system. The signature is based on a database table of fixed and variable data received by navigation and protection system (NPS). The NPS uses this signature database table to detect if a received data is valid and ignore it if identified as a cyber-attack.
Claims15
A navigation and protection system (NPS) with a cyber-attack mitigation signature used by an object that is at least one of a moving vehicle, a flying vehicle, and an stationary object comprising:
- a plurality of IoT devices to communicate with said objects in a surrounding environment to obtain a detected information data (DID);
- an IoT device within said plurality of IoT devices to communicate with an IoT network to obtain an operation information data (OID);
- a controller processing unit (CPU) to execute an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and maintain said cyber-attack mitigation signature;
- said cyber-attack mitigation signature is a database table that consists of a plurality of columns and a plurality of rows holding said OID, and said DID;
- said AI algorithm examines the OID, and the DID received from said plurality of IoT devices against the cyber-attack mitigation signature to:
- detect if the OID or the DID is a cyber-attack originated by an attacker to alter said database table and needs to be ignored;
- or
- use the OID and the DID to update the database table;
- and
- determine to activate at least one of a navigation device, and a protection device.
