Ning Zhang, "Security and Privacy in the Cyber-physical World"

 
Students: This is a hybrid event. You are
encouraged to attend in-person in STEW G-52

As
computing advances are making profound changes in our society, they
also expose us to new security threats. While the impact of cyber
attacks was often in our digital life in the past, our cyber world
is increasingly intertwined with the physical world. Compromised
safety-critical systems or critical infrastructures can have life
and death implications. In this talk, I will highlight two research
directions within my research group. First, on the system security
front, I will discuss our efforts to ensure system availability on
safety-critical embedded systems. Second, on the cyber-physical
security front, I will present our recent work on IoT security.
Finally, I will discuss our ongoing work and future
directions.
