Abstract

Data Distributed Service (DDS) is a widely used publish-subscribe-based middleware protocol for real-time machine-to-machine communication. Many critical infrastructure systems employ DDS for Real-Time applications. These DDS-based systems must operate effectively. This study examined the possibility of manipulating or improperly configuring DDS to facilitate malicious activities. A client-side attack on a DDS-based system and its consequences were the main topics of the research since DDS systems are isolated from other networks and external users. We investigated two security flaws in DDS in an isolated environment to show how they could be employed to compromise a DDS feature. The manipulation of QoS policy configurations in the DDS system demonstrated that it has become more secure than the early versions.
