Inaugural Lecture FH-Prof (Antrittsvorlesung)
Talk, FH Salzburg, Austria
On 24th October I had my inaugural lecture as FH-Prof about my research in OT cybersecurity.
Talks and presentations
An example of what recently happened during an attack on a specific car brand.
Talk, AutoSec | Lunch seminar, Gothenburg, Sweden
At the AutoSec lunch seminar organised by Chalmers and RISE, I presented a walk through of a the hack of a Hyundai’s infotainment system. It highlights the major security pitfalls that ultimately allowed a dedicated and patient programmer to ultimately program and run his own applications on his car’s infotainment system. The description of the hack can be found here.
CyReV Results: REMIND and V2C Anomaly Detection
Talk, AutoSec | CyReV Conference, Gothenburg, Sweden
At this spring’s AutoSec conference organised by Chalmers and RISE, I presented our work about resilience techniques for automotive systems (REMIND) and a vehicle to cloud anomaly detection framework (V2C Anomaly Detection).
On the Secure and Resilient Design of Connected Vehicles: Methods and Guidelines
Ph.D. Defense Presentation, Chalmers University, Gothenburg, Sweden
Vehicular security was long limited to physical security - to prevent theft. However, the trend of adding more comfort functions and delegating advanced driving tasks back to the vehicle increased the magnitude of attacks, making cybersecurity inevitable. Attackers only need to find one vulnerability in the myriad of electronic control units (ECUs) and communication technologies used in a vehicle to compromise its functions. Vehicles might also be attacked by the owners, who want to modify or even disable certain vehicle functions.
Bringing Automotive Security and Safety Closer Together
Talk, [AutoSec + OWASP] Christmas Seminar, Gothenburg, Sweden
We already have best practices and mechanisms for functional safety in place, however, a structured or standardised approach for identifying specific security mechanisms mandatory to be implemented are missing for the automotive domain. Our proposed approach covers basic security demands and enables a closer cooperation between safety and security work.
