description A cyber-physical system (CPS) can be referred to as a network of cyber and physical components that communicate with each other in a feedback manner. A CPS is essential for daily activities and approves critical infrastructure as it provides the base for innovative smart devices. The recent advances in the field of explainable artificial intelligence have contributed to the development of robust intrusion detection modes for CPS environments. This study develops an Explainable Artificial Intelligence Enabled Intrusion Detection Technique for Secure Cyber-Physical Systems (XAIID-SCPS). The proposed XAIID-SCPS technique mainly concentrates on the detection and classification of intrusions in the CPS platform. In the XAIID-SCPS technique, a Hybrid Enhanced Glowworm Swarm Optimization (HEGSO) algorithm is applied for feature selection purposes. For intrusion detection, the Improved Elman Neural Network (IENN) model was utilized with an Enhanced Fruitfly Optimization (EFFO) algorithm for parameter optimization. Moreover, the XAIID-SCPS technique integrates the XAI approach LIME for better understanding and explainability of the black-box method for accurate classification of intrusions. The simulation values demonstrate the promising performance of the XAIID-SCPS technique over other approaches with maximum accuracy of 98.87%.
