Popis: Cyberspace Mimicry Defense (CMD) has been widely used to achieve intrusion prevention against unknown system vulnerabilities or backdoors. The multi-ruling arbiter is a key part in CMD. This paper focuses on the problem of multi-ruling arbiter under data injection attack from the perspective of attacker and defender. We build a decentralized multi-ruling arbiter model for arbitration and introduced a standard iteration process to achieve consensus without attackers. We describe two data injection attack models for decentralized multi-ruling arbiter, namely random data injection attack and stealthy data injection attack. Further, we characterize the negative effect of the data injection attack on the performance of multi-ruling correctness. In order to mitigate the negative effect of random data injection attack, we propose a reliable multi-ruling arbitration approach based on adaptive threshold. By cutting future communication with the malicious neighbor, the decentralized multi-ruling arbiter is robust against random data injection attacks. Simulation results show that the proposed arbitration approach can effectively defend against random data injection attacks.
