Development of Cybersecurity Simulator-Based Platform for the Protection of Critical Infrastructures

Critical infrastructures (CNI) are vulnerable to cyberattacks due to their interconnected communication systems. We are developing a platform using real-time simulation of cyber-physical systems to enhance CNI resilience and security. The platform, initiated in the Vaasa Harbor Microgrid, allows creation of a digital twin and real-time execution of its functions. It provides a co-simulation environment for simulating cyberattack scenarios, aiding in the design of a cybersecurity simulator-based platform and offering services for CNI stakeholders.
