"Researchers Foil MitM Attack on Military Robots With Algorithm"

Researchers from the University of South Australia have been successful in preventing Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks on autonomous military robots by teaching the robot to detect MitM attacks using an algorithm. They prevented the MitM attack on an autonomous US Army robot. The intrusion detection algorithm trained the robot to identify and thwart such an attack. The algorithm was effective in 99 percent of cases and the false positive rate was less than 2 percent. In addition, the researchers suggested that the experimental algorithm outperforms existing methods for detecting cyberattacks. This article continues to discuss the experimental research that foiled a MitM attack on military robots with an algorithm.
