RobResilience: Implementing and Evaluating a Resilience Framework for Cyber-Physical Embodied Systems

RobResilience implements a runtime resilience framework for robots in Webots/ROS2, evaluating tolerable disruption, degradation, and mitigation feasibility across eight attack scenarios.

The paper implements a formal resilience framework for embodied cyber-physical systems using a PR2 robot and ROS2 in a Webots simulation. At runtime it evaluates three predicates — tolerable disruption (δ), tolerable degradation (γ), and mitigation feasibility (μ) — over a compromised device set derived from IDS confidence scores, triggering mitigation strategies when resilience is lost. Eight attack scenarios systematically covering the full predicate state space confirm runtime behavior matches theoretical definitions. The work addresses 'graceful failure paralysis,' where autonomous systems cannot distinguish safe degraded states from catastrophic hazards during attacks.

AVP-Inspect: Coordinated Cyber-Physical Testing for Privacy Analysis of COTS Apple Vision Pro Applications

AVP-Inspect automated testing finds 58% of 324 Apple Vision Pro apps show privacy violations, with over 60% of network traffic flows undisclosed.

Researchers built AVP-Inspect, a dynamic analysis framework combining custom hardware device control, 3D UI exploration, and a unified privacy taxonomy for Apple Vision Pro. Testing 324 App Store apps for 20 minutes each found 188 (58.0%) with at least one privacy violation. More than 60% of observed network traffic flows were not properly disclosed, extending prior XR privacy work beyond Android-based devices such as Meta Quest.

Nozomi Compass helps industrial teams manage OT assets and vulnerabilities

Nozomi Networks launched Compass, an OT asset and vulnerability management platform unifying asset records, remediation workflows, and compliance evidence for industrial teams.

Nozomi Networks announced Compass, an OT asset and service management platform built on real-time first-party asset data from its Vantage cyber-physical security platform. It provides OT-native workflows, governed change approvals, consequence-based risk scoring, and continuous audit-ready compliance evidence mapped to NERC CIP, IEC 62443, NIS2, and TSA. The platform integrates with EAM, CMDB, ITAM, ITSM, SIEM, and SOAR tools and is designed to safely support AI-driven and agentic OT workflows with human oversight.
