Teaching Industrial Control System Security Using Collaborative Projects
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, we discuss lessons learned over the past three years while supporting a graduate capstone course centered on research projects in industrial control system (ICS) security. Our course considers real-world problems in shipboard ICS posed by external stakeholders: a system-owner and related subject matter experts. We describe the course objectives, format, expectations and outcomes. While our experiences are generally positive, we remark on opportunities for curricula improvement relevant to those considering incorporating realistic ICS topics into their classroom, or those working with an external SME.
