SPADE: SPaT Attack Detection from the Connected Vehicle's Perspective

SPADE is a labelled, multi‑modal, simulation‑based dataset for detecting attacks on Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) messages from the perspective of connected vehicles. It contains 1.89 million timestep records generated by injecting six classes of application‑layer attacks and one benign class into the SAE J2735 SPaT protocol, across multiple intersection geometries, operating conditions, and random seeds. Each record fuses SPaT fields, onboard camera confidence scores, and cooperative V2V peer data into 40 features, enabling deep‑learning intrusion detection systems to distinguish deliberate attacks from environmental noise.

SPADE: SPaT Attack Detection from the Connected Vehicle's Perspective

The paper introduces SPADE, a labelled, multi‑modal dataset for detecting attacks on Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) messages from the perspective of connected vehicles. Generated via Eclipse MOSAIC, SPADE includes 1.89 million timestep records across six attack classes and one benign class, combining SPaT fields, camera confidence scores, and V2V peer data over 40 features. The dataset, along with generation code and scenario configurations, is publicly released on GitHub to enable reproducible deep‑learning intrusion detection research in C‑V2X security.

Digital Twin-Based Intrusion Detection for Vehicle Powertrain CAN Bus Systems

The paper presents a digital‑twin (DT) based intrusion detection system (IDS) for vehicle powertrain CAN bus traffic, modeling physical relationships among decoded signals to detect payload‑manipulation attacks that preserve normal timing and sequencing. Using a shared‑encoder LSTM trained on 17 Hyundai/Kia CAN signals, the DT flags anomalies when residuals exceed a threshold, achieving high detection rates (up to 94.6%) for stealthy attacks such as continuous drift and masquerade, while a range‑and‑plausibility baseline fails to detect them. The study demonstrates that learning coupled vehicle dynamics enables detection of payload‑level attacks that evade traditional timing‑based IDSs, though false positives remain a challenge.

How Benchmarks and Evaluation Protocols Shape Conclusions in Provenance-Based Intrusion Detection

arXiv:2608. 01454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Provenance-based intrusion detection systems (PIDS) frequently report strong performance, but the conclusions drawn from these results can be highly sensitive to benchmarking choices and evaluation protocols.

Jev-IDS: System One Models for Network Intrusion Detection

JEV-IDS is an open experimental general network intrusion detection system that uses the Jev System One Model to detect zero‑day intrusions even when labeled data are scarce. The system processes one flow per request and asks the model two questions: a binary attack probability and a finite‑choice traffic category. In tests on a 300‑flow NSL‑KDD pilot split, JEV-IDS achieved an F1‑score of 0.859, precision of 0.941, recall of 0.790, and a novel‑attack recall of 0.838, while being 4.8 times faster and 3.8 times cheaper than GPT‑5.6 Luna and producing 15 times fewer false alarms than a low‑data Random Forest.
