Original Abstract

Device identification in industrial networks is a significant topic as there is a need to identify devices based on passive scanning. Machine learning (ML) techniques can prove useful in this approach. This paper discusses the applicability of different data sources for device identification and focuses on timing information from network communication, specifically from the open platform communication unified architecture (OPC UA) protocol. The aim was to explore the potential of device identification based on this data. In this study, Random Forest and XGBoost ML algorithms were utilized for device identification. In the case types of devices known in the learning phase, the proposed algorithm achieved an accuracy score of up to 0.99. However, for unknown device types, the accuracy score was only around 0.71. The findings suggest that using time information for device identification is a promising direction for further development.
