The authors of the Hero et al.(2023) article should be congratulated for their nice overview of problems and challenges arising from cybersecurity threats in large enterprise systems, and the role of statistical and data science methods to address them. The broad methodological thrusts discussed include distributed statistical inference, data fusion, anomaly detection, and adversarial machine learning. In the sequel, a number of issues related to the challenging anomaly detection problem and the associated one of change point detection are briefly discussed.The scope of anomaly and change point detection in cyber-physical systems is more general than simply security considerations. For example, modern computer and communications networks and enterprise systems have become ubiquitous in the lives of individuals, as well as the function of organizations and governments. They support many services, from mature ones such as file sharing, email, web browsing, and cloud computing to fast-evolving ones such as remote education and telemedicine. However, to achieve their potential, certain requirements on quality-of-service need to be met by different stakeholders, including network providers, designers of enterprise systems, and applications developers. Further, quality-of-service can degrade for various reasons, including intrusions by unauthorized users, broad coordinated attacks (eg, distributed denial of service), or even underprovision of resources by network providers or exceedingly bandwidth-hungry applications. Further, as pointed out in Hero et al.(2023), the ever-increasing scale and complexity of network and enterprise systems contribute to the challenges.
