Paper2026
Material reviewed: AbstractThe paper proposes a Deception Readiness Index (DRI) for ICS and OT cybersecurity programs. Using design science and qualitative analysis of public standards and guidance, it scores readiness across governance, architecture, monitoring, workforce, and operational safety domains, and applies the index to three synthetic critical-infrastructure profiles to identify gaps before deployment.
OT/ICSDecoy
Paper2026
Material reviewed: AbstractThe paper introduces Co-ADAM, a defense framework that formalizes cyber deception in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) as a constrained Markov decision process with an embedded signaling game, aiming to jointly model the deception investment level and a co-evolutionary adversary that accumulates skepticism. The authors describe training a deep Q-network (DQN) defender against an adaptive attacker pool with budget constraints and skepticism dynamics embedded in the environment, and report evaluation on several IIoT datasets and a physical testbed.

Paper2026
Material reviewed: AbstractThe authors present HIVE-OT's design and implementation and evaluate the evidence supported by its process-coupled research core and historical exports, distinguishing the documented platform from a local implementation linking Modbus, a revised Rust water-treatment surrogate and SQLite. The study tests protocol behavior, command application and retained outcome representations, and audits two deployment exports containing 273978 and 842638 events.
OT/ICSNetworkHoneypot
Paper2026
Material reviewed: AbstractThe work presents HoneyPrompt, a multi-sensor fusion architecture for detecting and classifying autonomous AI agents that interact with industrial control systems. The authors deploy a maritime SCADA honeypot simulating a pipeline monitoring gateway across six protocols and instrument it with a graduated prompt injection acting as a sensor array.
OT/ICSNetworkHoneypotHoneytoken
Paper2026
Material reviewed: AbstractThe authors introduce ICSLure, a modular honeynet framework intended to emulate realistic industrial control system environments. It integrates physical PLCs with live data sources over industrial protocols and virtualized network components, with monitoring to log attacker interactions.
