Abstract
A method and system for automatic signalling an alert when a possible intrusion occurs in an industrial automation and control system, based on security events which occur in the industrial automation and control system or are externally fed into the system. The method includes the steps of: (a) determining a correlation of a first and second security event and storing the correlation in an event database, wherein the correlation includes a probability that the first security event is followed by the second security event within a normalized time period, (b) identifying a candidate event as the first security event, based on event information of the candidate event, upon occurrence of the candidate event, (c) classifying the candidate event as anomalous when the probability exceeds a predetermined threshold and no second security event follows the candidate event within the normalized time period, and (d) signalling the alert indicating the candidate event.
