ABSTRACT
Industrial control system (ICS) and critical infrastructure have become
increasingly dependent on cyber-physical systems nowadays. Since ICS network
is vulnerable to adversarial attacks, building secure operation mode is
essential. In order to secure the integrity of data in ICS, this paper
proposes a blockchain-based log system implemented on physical industrial
equipment. Applying cross-organizational blockchain transaction mechanism
in the specialized master-slave network model, industrial control transmission
logs can be verified and non-repudiation
