Abstract

Robotic systems are rapidly becoming more prolific and are being used for an increasing range of tasks. The more integrated they are with sensitive tasks and with their users’ lives and likelihoods, the greater desirability they possess as targets to would-be attackers. Security has not yet been a major focus within robotics. This article surveys literature related to robotic systems security, specifically identifying vulnerabilities, attacks, and solutions in order to help roboticists understand why to focus on security throughout their design, potential problems they could face, and steps they can take to address these problems.
