Abstract

This paper is concerned with the problem of designing successful covert attacks against output tracking control of cyber-physical systems from the covert agent's angle. Based on the perfect model knowledge and no model knowledge, the covert agent designs two kinds of covert attacks which can compromise the output tracking control system without being detected. Two sufficient conditions under which the covert agent can successfully compromise the output tracking control system are proposed. The designed covert attacks are illustrated through two numerical examples.
