Abstract The
advent of the Internet of Things
(IoT) has enabled the development of
systems capable of collecting and
processing vast amounts of data to
enhance system operation and/or to
predict or tailor user experiences.
The development, adoption, and
evolution of systems with more
complex software and increased
connectivity enabled by IoT
technologies has led to a new
frontier of cybersecurity
vulnerabilities from which such
systems were previously shielded. As
a result, there is an ever-growing
need to evaluate and assure the
cybersecurity of IoT-enabled
systems, and the information that
they use, store, and communicate, in
the face of cyber-attacks and
failures.
In this talk, Dr. Jaskolka will
explore the growing range of complex
challenges faced when evaluating and
assuring the cybersecurity of
IoT-enabled systems. Dr. Jaskolka
will also discuss the opportunities
that this presents in developing new
and innovative ways to engineer more
secure and trustworthy IoT-enabled
systems. In particular, Dr. Jaskolka
will present recent advances in
addressing system-level
cybersecurity evaluation and
assurance using an example
IoT-enabled system.
Speaker
Bio Dr.
Jason Jaskolka is an Assistant
Professor in the Department of
Systems and Computer Engineering at
Carleton University, Ottawa, ON,
Canada. He received his Ph.D. in
Software Engineering in 2015 from
McMaster University, Hamilton, ON,
Canada. His research interests
include cybersecurity evaluation and
assurance, security-by-design, and
formal methods and algebraic
approaches for software and security
engineering. He is interested in
applying his research to critical
infrastructures, cyber-physical and
distributed systems, and the
Internet of Things (IoT).
