Anatomy of an attack: from the security vulnerability to the blackmail message
After some spectacular security vulnerabilities in widely used applications became sadly famous in 2022, it should be clear that no one can be safe from attacks. But what ends up in the media is usually only part of a story.

How do I systematically increase software security expertise in mechanical and plant engineering?
Digitalization in mechanical and plant engineering leads to new functionality, but at the same time opens up the possibility of cyber attacks, ranging from spying on sensitive data to obtain secret product and production knowledge to manipulating and disrupting operations. Read more...

Cyber resilience for networked automation
Virtually every relevant standard or standard text on cybersecurity in the Internet of Things or in networked automation (i.e. in OT environments) requires software update options for all relevant components. This should actually improve the security of an application, as a software patch is simply carried out if vulnerabilities are subsequently identified.

IIoT edge and cloud security architecture in practice
The presentation describes the requirements for the security architecture of IIoT applications. The focus is on the special features of horizontal networking of applications that are connected to cloud systems via mobile communications. The differences in requirements and architecture compared to vertical networking, i.e. in the company's own network, and remote maintenance solutions are worked out on the basis of concretely implemented applications representative of globally distributed crane applications at ConductixWampfler.

Making AI Architectures and Models Applicable in Functional Safety
Prof. Hans Dermot Doran, Zurich University of Applied Sciences
© Zurich University of Applied SciencesIn this presentation we review the latest state-of-the-art in safety and neural network related technologies with a specific focus on those that are applicable to industry. We begin by considering the dependability of operations on the hardware level in AI architectures and show what techniques are used both in industry and suggested in research and appear viable for actual implementation.

Verification of diverse programs
In this talk, we would like to present a solution for the verification of automatically generated diverse channels, using the example of coded processing. By applying the code generator to additional wrapper functions, the tests of the native channel can be automatically applied to the generated diverse channel. Read more...

Integrity of information in embedded systems. Expected security in a reality check
Data protection is playing an increasingly important role in an increasingly digitalized and technologized world - whether we are dealing with our sensitive private data or when companies want to protect their information assets from theft or malicious modification. Read more...

Context Sensitive Safety Solution
Context Sensitive Safety Solution In collaboration with TÜV-Süd, Arendar IT-Security has developed a solution for the runtime safety assessment of machines and systems. The aim is to automate and monitor compliance with safety requirements during the operation of machines and systems at runtime and to react dynamically to changing environmental conditions.

Runtime verification for safe robot systems
Dr. Michael Rathmair, Joanneum Research Forschungsgesellschaft mbH Robotics - Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics
© Johanneum ResearchDigitalization and automation in production require modern robot systems that not only perform their tasks correctly, but are also safe for people in the vicinity. The safety issue becomes particularly challenging when robot systems are used in a variety of ways and not just in specially designated production areas in order to handle variations in products, raw materials, etc. as flexibly as possible.

Qualification of C++ template libraries
In the presentation, the requirements of the safety standards (ISO 26262 and IEC 61508) for libraries are presented and the additional challenges posed by the templates are shown. We will use examples to demonstrate the new, generic qualification. Read more...
September 22, 13:30 - 14:00
Checking the test case quality with mutation tests
The lecture introduces the mutation test procedure and explains terms such as strong/weak mutation, coupling effect, the hypothesis of the competent programmer, mutation test in contrast to error injection, adequate test case.

Safe interference analysis for software components
In this presentation, a methodology is presented that makes it possible to reliably determine the data and control coupling between software components and to prove the freedom of interaction of software components. The calculated data and control coupling can also be used to determine previously untested scenarios in the integration test and to check the compliance of the component interactions with the specified software architecture.

Closing keynote: Post-quantum cryptography: protecting data for the future
IBM produced a quantum computer with 127 qubits in 2021, one with 433 qubits is due to follow this year and one with over 1000 qubits is planned for 2023. If development continues at this rate, Shor's algorithm could easily break classic asymmetric encryption methods such as RSA or ECDSA, which are predominantly used on the internet today, in the near future.
This presentation shows the current status of post-quantum algorithms. The functionalities of the Shor and the presented post-quantum algorithms are briefly outlined. The focus is on the evaluation of currently available methods of post-quantum cryptography.
