Secure Cyber Physical Systems 


Course Description

This course focuses on the design and operation of secure and safe Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). Students will learn (a) the general architecture of CPS in different domains including public infrastructure and healthcare, (b) control mechanisms and communication protocols in CPS, (c) programming of PLCs in various languages, (d) nature and severity of cyber-attacks and their detection and defence mechanisms. Students will have access to the testbeds for water, power and IoT at SUTD to learn programming of CPS and conduct attack-defence experiments.

 

Objectives

Students will acquire foundational knowledge in cyber security and the required skill-set to analyze and/or create secure systems in a diverse group of organizations.
