Cyber Physical System Security
Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) integrate computing, networking, and physical processes. CPSs are known for their ability to: a) monitor the physical environment; b) use the monitored data in detecting the state of the physical environment; c) control the physical environment; and d) use cyber communications to perform its monitoring, detection and control operations. This course will introduce the state-of-the-art CPS technologies, ranging from Internet-of-Things to clouds. The objectives are to
- learn the basic concepts, technologies and applications of Internet-of-Things (IoT),
- understand the fundamental security challenges and practical countermeasures and attacks in IoT systems,
- learn the basic architecture, technologies and applications of Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) for critical infrastructures,
- understand the vulnerabilities of IIoT and the related critical national security impact,
- learn the basic concepts of cloud infrastructure and its service models and deployment modes,
- understand cloud deployment, management, and scaling techniques,
- understand vulnerabilities and threats and learn security and privacy policies and solutions in clouds, and
- gain hands-on experience with IoT and cloud systems.
Course Material
Please provide a brief overview of your work within this course, explaining how you engaged with the above learning outcomes. You will want to include examples of your assignments that demonstrate your practice with these concepts, explaining what you did and how it helped you learn. You may include embedded versions of your material, pictures, audio explaining your work, a video, so on (Tutorials: Adding and Embedding Media, Plugin: Simple YouTube Embed, More). Remember that you are trying to convince an unfamiliar audience that you 1) have working knowledge of these concepts 2) can demonstrate your skill in relation to these concepts 3) they want to spend time learning more about your knowledge and skills. Finally, you will want to indicate how you can use this knowledge in the future, specifically within your chosen discipline.
