      Current-state opacity formulations in probabilistic finite automata 

      Saboori, A.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2014)
      A system is said to be current-state opaque if the entrance of the system state to a set of secret states remains opaque (uncertain) to an intruder - at least until the system leaves the set of secret states. This notion ...

      Detectability in stochastic discrete event systems 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (IFAC Secretariat, 2014)
      In this paper we define and analyze notions of detectability in stochastic discrete event systems (SDES). More specifically, we introduce the notions of A-detectability and AA-detectability which focus on characterizing ...

      Detectability in stochastic discrete event systems 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2015)
      A discrete event system possesses the property of detectability if it allows an observer to perfectly estimate the current state of the system after a finite number of observed symbols, i.e., detectability captures the ...

      Initial state opacity in stochastic des 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2013)
      A non-deterministic finite automaton is initial-state opaque if the membership of its true initial state to a given set of secret states S remains opaque (i.e., uncertain) to an intruder who observes system activity through ...

      Opacity formulations and verification in discrete event systems 

      Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Keroglou, C. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014)
      In many emerging security applications, a property of a system, that may reveal important details about its behaviour, needs to be kept secret (opaque) to outside observers (intruders). Motivated by such applications, ...

      Opacity verification in stochastic discrete event systems 

      Saboori, A.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2010)
      Motivated by security and privacy considerations in applications of discrete event systems, various notions of opacity have been introduced. Specifically, a system is said to be current-state opaque if the entrance of the ...

      Probabilistic system opacity in discrete event systems 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016)
      In many emerging security applications, a system designer frequently needs to ensure that a certain property of a given system (that may reveal important details about the system's operation) be kept secret (opaque) to ...

      Probabilistic system opacity in discrete event systems 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2018)
      In many emerging security applications, a system designer frequently needs to ensure that a certain property of a given system (that may reveal important details about the system’s operation) be kept secret (opaque) to ...

      Verification of detectability in Probabilistic Finite Automata 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2017)
      In this paper we analyze state estimation in stochastic discrete event systems (SDES) that can be modeled as probabilistic finite automata (PFAs). For a given PFA, we obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions that ...
