SUMMARY:AI at the heart of Trustworthy Control: New Opportunities and Threats in Industrial Control and Cyber-Physical Systems
DESCRIPTION:Whether we like it or not\, AI will be deeply embedded in cyber-physical systems from the smallest on-chip components to decision making across systems of systems and interactions with users. AI will also be used through the whole life of systems\, to assist in their design\, operation\, and decommissioning. But how? Beyond the hype\, what are AI’s most promising emerging uses? And what are the obstacles to its adoption? What are the risks associated with such pervasive AI use? Questions have been raised at the intersection of AI and safety\, and AI components have proven to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. AI can also underpin developments in both offensive and defensive capabilities. Which one will see the highest impact? This event aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working on AI in industrial control and cyber-physical systems to discuss the emergent landscape\, its associated risks and opportunities\, and to identify research\, adoption and policy challenges that must be prioritised\, to ensure cyber-physical systems remain safe\, robust and resilient\, whilst maximising the advantages conferred by AI use.   \n  \nThe event will focus on the interactions between AI components and the control loops present in industrial control systems (ICS) and cyber-physical systems (CPS)\, whether at the level of a single device such as a robot\, at the level of local control such as a building management system or a micro-grid operating in islanded mode or in large-scale systems such as critical national infrastructures. The programme of the event will include invited presentations from industry and academia\, discussions sessions and a closing panel.

SUMMARY:Addressing the Economics of CNI Security in Railways
DESCRIPTION:Securing critical national infrastructure (CNI) has to factor in the economic principles that govern the dynamics and relationships of the various stakeholders involved in terms of technology adoption and\, behaviour and culture. The decisions of operators\, suppliers and regulators affect key measures of risks\, incidents and disruptions are also important. Equally relevant is the impact of digital and physical lock-ins\, externalities and asymmetries. \nThis event seeks to uncover some of the research themes underlying CNI security in railways. A selection of speakers will share insights from their understanding and experience to provide a context to the wider discussions. The event will be an opportunity to develop a research agenda and explore opportunities as to how some of the relevant challenges can be addressed. \nSecuring critical national infrastructure (CNI) has to factor in the economic principles that govern the dynamics and relationships of the various stakeholders involved in terms of technology adoption and\, behaviour and culture.

SUMMARY:Cyber Physical Security of The Maritime Operation
DESCRIPTION:Operations at sea and in ports provide a number of highly unique challenges for those companies and organisations engaged in them. Finding and creating ways to perform tasks in remote locations\, provide long distance communications\, and track large quantities of goods is imperative to success. The maritime sector relies on a wide range of systems and technologies to underpin this\, where cyber-security is imperative for their trusted operation. This workshop seeks to bring together expert research in the field of maritime cyber-security and applicable technologies to discuss the state of the art\, existing and forthcoming challenges and novel techniques for maritime security.

SUMMARY:Cybersecurity in the Lifecycle of Orbital Systems
DESCRIPTION:Cyber-Physical systems in remote locations provide a multitude of challenges for the maintenance of operation and security. No such systems better represent the challenges as those that are in space\, where post deployment the potential for interaction is limited. This workshop seeks to highlight the wide array of design and operation topics that are required to secure an orbital system across the whole life of the device. Through insights from leading figures in the field of security and orbital engineering\, this event looks to give a breadth of challenges that the industry faces and through community input begin to discuss the approaches that can begin to address them.
