The Intelligent System Division (ISD) develops advances and deploys measurement science and standards to speed development, adoption, and integration of leading-edge intelligent technologies to advance U.S. manufacturing. To support ISD's efforts to develop a cyber-security risk management framework for smart manufacturing systems with associated standards, guidelines, performance metrics, and tools, it is necessary to model these systems and networks and determine the performance impacts of security technologies when used in smart manufacturing systems. This will lead to smart manufacturing systems that offer security, reliability, resiliency and continuity in the face of disruption and major incidents The KUKA youBot robotic arms will be used in the industrial control systems cyber-security testbed. The arms will be dynamically programmed to cooperatively assemble a structure by software running on a separate PC platfom1. An industrial robotic system that allows for a focus more on the cyber-security aspects of the existing system and not on the programming of the robots is the division objective.
