Abstract
Recently, advancements in digital twin and extended reality (XR) technologies, along with industrial control systems (ICSs), have driven the transition to Industry 5.0. Digital twins mimic and simulate real-world systems and play a crucial role in various industries. XR provides innovative user experiences through virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR). By integrating digital twin simulations into XR devices, these technologies are utilized in various industrial fields. However, the prevalence of XR devices has increased the exposure to cybersecurity threats in ICS and digital twin environments. Because XR devices are connected to networks, the control and production data they process are at risk of being exposed to cyberattackers. Attackers can infiltrate XR devices through malicious code or hacking attacks to take control of the ICS or digital twin or paralyze the system. Therefore, this study emphasizes the cybersecurity threats in the ecosystem of XR devices used in ICSs and conducts research based on digital forensics. It identifies potentially sensitive data and artifacts in XR devices and proposes secure and reliable security response measures in the Industry 5.0 environment.
