Abstract

The security of cyber-physical systems is of paramount importance because of their pervasiveness in the critical infrastructure. Protecting cyber-physical systems greatly depends on a deep understanding of the possible attacks and their properties. The prerequisite for quantitative and qualitative analyses of attacks is a knowledge base containing attack descriptions. The structure of the attack descriptions is the indispensable foundation of the knowledge base.
