Considering the measurement tampered by the attacker, an estimator is presented to obtain relative accurate state estimation, where the gain is acquired by a recursive algorithm. On this basis, a type of centralized controller is designed combined with cloud computing system. Moreover, from perspective of the defender, a detector is proposed at the side of agent to detect whether the current actuator input is attacked. Using linear matrix inequality, sufficient conditions are given for achieving mean-square bounded consensus and an upper boundary is derived. Finally, validity of the proposed method is illustrated via two simulation examples.
