Course Overview

Cybersecurity for robotics is a multidisciplinary research domain growing in relevance and importance due to the continuous growth of robotics systems and the increase in cybersecurity, safety risks, and challenges. Threats can penetrate all the way to the shop floor where the production takes place, affecting the consumers. Safety standards demand a security mechanism that protects the robot endpoints and fulfills all the security requirements, a Robot Endpoint Protection Platform (REPP). Self-driving cars could be hacked with ransomware, not allowing owners to enter, start or exit the vehicle until a ransom is paid. Terrorist hackers could disable networks, range sensors, and cameras, resulting in multiple collisions. An autonomous vehicle’s operating system could be hacked, exposing personal information on other connected devices. Hacked vehicles could potentially be rerouted to an area where a robbery or assault is planned.  

The course begins with an introduction to robotics and autonomous systems. As you move on, you will learn to model robot cybersecurity threats. Further, you will explore modelling risk and characterization of the robotic system. Next, you will learn modelling safety issues and authentication techniques. After that, you will discover cloud robotics and security, including cyber-physical systems.  Furthermore, you will learn mobile robotics and its security. Next, you will discover how to simulate the network and implement security in development.  

By the end of the course, you will gain expertise in robotics, cyber-security, verification and validation, control theory, artificial intelligence, unmanned systems, machine learning, formal methods, and human-robot interaction.
