The integration of cyber technologies (computing and communication) with the physical world gives rise to complex systems referred to as Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), for example, manufacturing, transportation, smart grid, and water treatment. Many of those systems are part of the critical infrastructure and need to perform safely, reliably, and securely in real-time. CPS security is challenging as compared to the conventional IT systems. An adversary can compromise the system in both the cyber and the physical domains. However, the unique set of technologies and processes being used in a CPS also bring up opportunities for defense. CPS security has been approached in several ways due to the complex interaction of physical and cyber components. In this work, a comprehensive study is taken to summarize the challenges and the proposed solutions for securing CPS from a Physics-based perspective.
