Artificial Intelligence Methods Used in Industry 4.0 in Particular Industrial Control Systems

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a very promising field of development, in many directions. It is widespread in computer technology (biotechnology, nanotechnology, Internet of Things, etc.) as well as in robotics, 3D printing, quantum computing, and many more. Using it to predict and defend from cyber attacks is another of its many applications. In conduct of a project to study the security of cyber-physical connections in the context of next-generation computer networks, an overview of AI methods and their application in Industry 4.0 has been made. More attention has been given to the application of AI as a mean of protecting technologies such as SCADA, industrial Internet of Things, and in general cyberphysical connections. The aim of this study is to present and compare different methods of AI for fighting cyber attacks, or rather their application in systems for detecting and preventing intrusions in the field of the technology mentioned.
