Workshop organization

The workshop is organized in close collaboration between CERT@VDE  and OSADL. 

Scope of the workshop

In the good old days when embedded systems were used to control stand-alone machines and did not require any connectivity to the outside world, security did not play a role at all. When controlling and evaluating embedded systems at a higher level it became necessary to connect them to each other and to supervisor systems - but still in the closed environment of an installation. About ten to fifteen years ago there was a clear tendency to connect embedded systems also outside the protected environment of an installation, and even within an installation, systems were no longer protected since malware was increasingly imported even in such close environments. This was the time when security would have to be taken into consideration but - nevertheless understandable - engineers only took a more serious approach to security when the first intrusion attacks and denial of services successfully attacked their own installations.

In contrast to other technologies that had time to be continuously developed security became virtually overnight an important issue to take care of. Because of this suddenly emerging requirement there was little time to teach and train engineers and to create appropriate company structures to take care of all aspects of computer security. This innovation workshop that is organized jointly by CERT@VDE and OSADL takes on this challenge and presents an agenda that covers many important aspects of equipping today's embedded systems with protective software not only during runtime of the systems but also during development.

Recommended audience of the workshop are software developers, system integrators, security officers, field application engineers, or, in other words, everyone who is responsible or maybe confronted with security issues of embedded systems.
