SECURITY OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

Catalog description

An embedded system is some combination of computer hardware and software, either fixed in capability or programmable, which is specifically designed for a particular function. Industrial machines, automobile electronic systems, medical equipment, cameras, household appliances, airplanes, and vending machines, are among the myriad possible hosts of an embedded system. This course covers forward-looking topics in the security of embedded systems, including topics such as logic circuit obfuscation, hardware security methods, network setup exploits, and other "lower level" computer architecture subjects with respect to cybersecurity.
