Detection Is Not Enough - Attack Recovery for Safe and Robust Autonomous Robotic Vehicles
Explore a 15-minute conference talk from USENIX Enigma 2022 that delves into attack recovery strategies for autonomous robotic vehicles (RVs). Learn about the limitations of attack detection alone and discover two novel frameworks designed to provide safe responses to attacks, allowing RVs to continue their missions despite malicious interventions. Understand the importance of sensor measurements in RV perception and the vulnerabilities they present. Examine the Feed-Forward Controller (FFC) technique that monitors and takes over when attacks are detected, as well as a method for identifying and isolating compromised sensors while using historic states to estimate current RV positioning. Gain insights into the challenges of GPS spoofing, sensor tampering, and their potential impacts on military drones and marine navigation systems.
