Abstract:

Disclosed are devices, systems, apparatus, methods, products, and other implementations, including a method that includes causing at least one reset for one or more components of a cyber-physical system, the cyber-physical system including a mechanical apparatus with at least one of a mechanical input or a mechanical output, and at least one controller to control operations of at least one of the mechanical apparatus and inhibit computing-based attacks on the cyber-physical system. The method further includes determining, upon resumption of operation of the cyber-physical system following the at least one reset, a post-reset state of the one or more components of the cyber-physical system based, at least in part, on mechanical attributes of the mechanical apparatus following the at least one reset resulting from inertia of the mechanical apparatus during the at least one reset.
