Cybersecurity is one of the main trends of recent years. While being extensively addressed in "consumers" scenarios, the security of industrial systems is not very advanced and it poses other problems such as legacy devices, time constraints, usable security for installation of devices, devices not connected to the internet, physical security, safety constraints, etc. This field has never been deeply analyzed, since these kinds of devices were thought and built in “closed” networks, where the only possible attacks were physical ones. With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0), these systems have been exposed to the public domain and the attack surface, as a consequence, it exploded. There is indeed the need of a strong security paradigm for these systems to contrast attacks which are more frequent every day. The goal of this course is to give a clear view on the implementation and research questions of cybersecurity on industrial systems. We will expose which are the current research directions and what research can do to meet with industry security standards from our industrial experience and research points of view.
