Abstract: Cyber-physical system (CPS) is widely used in industrial control and critical infrastructures. Because of its vulnerability, the security of CPS is especially important. In order to improve the accuracy of CPS attack detection, an attack detection method combining sparse autoencoder (SAE) and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed in this paper. For the purpose of dimension reduction of data in CPS, SAE is used to learn and reduce dimension of the data, and the unsupervised method is adopted to reconstruct the new representation of features. On this basis, in order to establish an optimized detection model, improved bacterial foraging algorithm(IBFA) is employed to optimize parameters of SVM. The Tennessee-Eastman process model is utilized as simulation foundation to simulate a malicious attack to CPS, and the proposed algorithm is then used to detect the attack. Results coming out of above simulation and detections indicate that the proposed algorithm can detect occurrence of attacks effectively, which not only shorten detection time but also improve security performance of CPS.
