Abstract:
Hybrid autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) and drone systems represent a significant advancement in industrial
automation, yet their integrated circuits (ICs) face critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Their interconnected IC
components create expanded attack surfaces vulnerable to sophisticated cyber-attacks that enable covert
remote control. This research aims to develop and validate a machine learning-enabled (ML-enabled) detection
system for identifying and preventing unauthorized access attempts targeting the interconnected IC
components of hybrid AGV-drone platforms. Our methodology implemented real-time IC behavioral monitoring
using distributed sensor networks across both AGV and drone platforms. The system employs a multi-layer
detection approach, combining signal analysis and pattern recognition with machine learning algorithms to
identify security breaches. The implemented system achieved 95% accuracy in detecting unauthorized access
attempts, with response times averaging under 10ms for rapid threat mitigation. False positive rates remained
below 2% during extensive testing across different environmental conditions. The system successfully identified
and blocked 98% of simulated remote manipulation attempts targeting both platforms. Cross-platform threat
detection showed 96% accuracy in identifying attacks exploiting the system's interconnected nature. We
recommend implementing this ML-enabled security framework as a standardized component in hybrid AGV-
drone systems, with regular updates to address evolving attack patterns.
