Titel: "When Machines Listen and Watch: Cybersecurity in Cyber-Physical Systems"
Abstrakt: Machines that can hear and see are increasingly taking on tasks once reserved for humans. However, anything that can sense the world can be fooled by it, and anything that acts in the world can be watched. This talk explores three perspectives. First, ordinary environmental noises in a factory can be used to manipulate a robot's behaviour, causing it to interpret these sounds as commands. Second, cameras and AI can be combined to detect intruders crossing a restricted airport zone, without deploying any physical barrier. Third, the same robots guarding that zone can leak information about their own movements, despite full encryption of their network commands.
