CFP: Security Aspects of Cyber-Physical Systems

The First International Workshop on Security Aspects of Cyber-Physical
Systems (SACPS'15)

http://www.uhasselt.be/UH/datasim/ABMTRANS.html
http://satoss.uni.lu/sacps2015/
in conjunction with ANT-2015 conference

June 2 - 5, 2015 London, UK

SCOPE

Security of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is challenging due to the
inherent complexity of CPS. Moreover, it is not sufficient to
ascertain the security of the individual components in isolation:
threats in CPS systems could also be due to the interaction between
the physical, digital and software parts of CPS. Therefore, the system
must be studied as a whole, which sets this emerging discipline apart
from these individually established fields. This workshop provides a
platform for professionals from academia, government, and industry to
discuss how to address the increasing security challenges facing CPS.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* Modeling CPS (formal models, UML, SysML, ADAAL, etc)

* Design secure CPS

* Risks analysis of CPS

* Formal methods for CPS (abstraction, compositional verification, model checking, theorem proving, simulation, testing, etc)

* Threat modeling for CPS

* Security policies and access control for CPS

* Safety and reliability analysis for CPS

* Security requirements specification for CPS

* Human aspects for CPS

* Case studies, tools, and experimental results for CPS
