Abstract
The DARPA LADS program uses unintended emissions, including RF emissions, to try to determine the internal state of a digital device. The CASPER project uses a combination of digital signal processing and machine learning in order to discover changes of state that may indicate unwanted activity on the device. In this paper, we will discuss our recent experiences fielding the CASPER system as part of the DARPA RADICS exercise. The RADICS program is building the tools necessary to recover from a catastrophic attack on the cyber assets of the electrical grid. CASPER provides a complementary technology for discovering which assets are performing anomalously to help speed remediation efforts. The RADICS exercise lasted 7 days and is conducted on a live electrical grid in a remote area. The design of the exercise is to provide a high degree of realism including no Internet access and limited access to supplies not already on site.
