A comprehensive study of the principles and practices of cyber-physical systems (CPS) security, covering hardware platforms, software systems, and a range of attacks and defenses. Topics include CPS hardware organization (microcontrollers, industrial control systems, robotic and autonomous vehicles, sensors, and actuators); CPS software (communication protocols, real-time requirements, control algorithms, sensor filtering, autonomy frameworks, and simulators); and security challenges and countermeasures across domains, such as sensor spoofing and jamming, network and software vulnerabilities, system-level exploits, and adversarial machine learning attacks.
