Cybersecurity for Internet of Things and Critical Infrastructures A1N

Education facts

Code: IT816A

<p>Internet of Things (IoT) is poised to change technological infrastructures, including critical infrastructures. The aim of this course is to introduce a wide variety of security and privacy issues associated with the Internet of Things. The course also discusses and problematizes the interweaving interplay between IoT and cyber-physical systems which are increasingly contributing to the foundation of evolving Smart-X applications and to the core of Industry 4.0 revolution, as well as contemporary critical infrastructures. Vulnerabilities across these highly-networked structures are presented along metrics used to quantify their severity. Models of threats exploiting those vulnerabilities and resulting attack impact patterns are elaborated to understand the concepts involved in cybersecurity risk-assessment.</p>
