One of the most challenging modern problems–security assessment and assurance for safety important I&C systems–is discussed. Interrelations and hierarchical structure of I&C systems attributes, including safety and security, are considered. Review of existing regulatory documents that covers various development and operation aspects of safety important I&C systems is presented. Such a review al...

Cyber-physical systems tightly integrate physical processes and information and communication technologies. As today’s critical infrastructures, e.g., the power grid or water distribution networks, are complex cyber-physical systems, ensuring their safety and security becomes of paramount importance.Traditional safety analysis methods, such as HAZOP, are ill-suited to assess these systems. Furt...

Industrial and building automation systems are more and more important in industry and buildings. New services and novel fields of application call for dependable systems. Two very important properties of such a system are functional safety and system security. Today’s automation systems are lacking of efficient security features, even though promising extensions are available. Some have alread...

Security topics in all areas are a pressing need for Computer Science instructors. This paper provides a survey of security features in modern programming languages. We present the role that type safety and capabilities provide for the building of secure systems, and how language systems allow designers to model security issues that once were part-and-parcel of Operating Systems, or that can no...

The SeSaR (Security for Safety in Railways) project is a HW/SW system conceived to protect critical infrastructures against cyber threats both deliberate and accidental – arising from misuse actions operated by personnel from outside or inside the organization, or from automated malware programs (viruses, worms and spyware). SeSaR’s main objective is to strengthen the security aspects of a comp...

Background and Goal: ICT development in recent years has created excellent developments in human social and economic life. One of the most important opportunities to use information technology is in the medical field, that the result would be electronic health record (EHR).The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects information securi...

The network security assessment instrument is a comprehensive set of tools that can be used individually or collectively to ensure the security of network aware software applications and systems. Using the various tools collectively provide a distinct advantage for assuring the security of software and systems. Each tool’s resulting output provides feedback into the other tools. Thus, more comp...
