arXiv:2610.19650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding the security posture of cyber physical systems (CPS) requires reasoning across both information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT). However, a security analyst often holds an incomplete, role-specific view of the underlying system which has most likely resulted from their knowledge limited by a need-to-know framework. Such an incomplete view can potentially lead them to incorrectly assess if a cyber attack produces an untoward physical consequence resulting in making uninformed decisions about system resilience. In this work, we present AWARE-RG (Abstraction Aware Explanation of Resiliency Graphs), a semi-automated, human-in-the-loop framework that provides an analyst with a role-bounded, need-to-know explanations of resiliency paths in a CPS. The AWARE-RG abstraction structure is derived using Formal Concept Analysis over MITRE ATT&CK for ICS tactics, ordered by the ICS Cyber Kill Chain. For valid attack-fault queries, plan repair and backward means-end analysis identify the missing dependencies, explain why the physical hazard is reachable, and suggest defensive strategies. For invalid attack-fault queries, AWARE-RG localizes the first abstraction level at which the path fails, and reports confirmed blocking conditions as hardening pointers.
