SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Anomaly Detection and Causal Reasoning about Attacks in SCADA Systems
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar at kl.15 on the first Thursday of each month. This Spring they will be on-line\, and all are welcome to join. Each invited speaker will talk for about 40 minutes\, followed by a panel discussion coordinated by TECoSA members.\nKlara Nahrstedt\nThe seventh speaker in our series is Prof Klara Nahrstedt\, Director of the Coordinated Science Laboratory at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Prof Nahrstedt is also a member of TECoSA’s International Scientific Advisory Board. You can read more about Prof Nahrstedt here: https://cs.illinois.edu/about/people/faculty/klara \nPanel: Lei Feng (Chair)\, Magnus Isaksson (RTE)\, Fredrik Asplund (KTH) \nPlease email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register! \nAnomaly Detection and Causal Reasoning about Attacks in SCADA Systems \nABSTRACT: Abstract: The SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems are widely used in critical cyber-physical systems (CPS) such as Smart Grid\, Manufacturing and other mission-critical CPS systems. SCADA devices and networks are often subject to a wide range of attacks coming from external attackers and/or internal misconfigurations.  Traditional intrusion detection systems are deployed to ensure the security of SCADA systems\, but they often focus on monitoring only one or two levels of network data\, such as traffic or source data\, and continuously generate a large number of alerts without further analyzing them for causal reasoning. \nIn this talk\, we present anomaly detection systems\, such as ED4GAP and EDMOND\, and a causal reasoning framework\, such as CAPTAR. ED4GAP is an efficient edge-based detector for GOOSE-based source data attacks. EDMOND is an edge-based anomaly detector for MODBUS traffic\, which analyzes SCADA network anomalies at all three levels of network traffic data (transport\, protocol\, source data)\, aggregates alerts to decrease the volume of alerts\, and sends aggregated alerts to control center for causal analysis. CAPTAR is a cloud-based causal reasoning framework which correlates and matches aggregated alerts to causal polytrees. Bayesian inference is performed on the causal polytrees to produce a high-level view of the security state of the protected SCADA network. We will discuss the anomaly detection and causal reasoning analyses on attack examples\, and show experimentally that\, using GOOSE\, MODBUS and DNP3 network traffic\, we can do anomaly detection and attack reasoning in real-time. \nJoint work with Dr. Wenyu Ren\, Dr. Tuo Yu\, Dr. Atul Bohara\, Dr. Jordi Ros-Giralt\, Ghada Elbez\, Tim Yardley\, Al Valdes\, Prof. Bill Sanders in the Information Trust Institute (ITI) at University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign. \nBIO: Klara Nahrstedt is the Grainger Distinguished Chair of Engineering Professor in the Computer Science Department\, and Director of Coordinated Science Laboratory in the College of Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her research interests are directed toward end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) and resource management in large scale multimedia distributed systems and networks\, and real-time security and privacy in cyber-physical systems. She is the recipient of the IEEE Communication Society Leonard Abraham Award for Research Achievements\, University Scholar\, Humboldt Award\, IEEE Computer Society Technical Achievement Award\, ACM SIGMM Technical Achievement Award\, Piloty Prize\, and Drucker Award. Klara Nahrstedt received her Diploma in Mathematics from Humboldt University\, Berlin\, Germany in 1985. In 1995 she received her PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in the Department of Computer and Information Science. She is ACM Fellow\, IEEE Fellow\, AAAS Fellow\, and Member of the German National Academy of Sciences (Leopoldina Society). \nDates in the Seminar Series include: 1 October\, 5 November\, 3 December\, 4 February\, 4 March\, 1 April\, 6 May\, 3 June

SUMMARY:TECoSA Testbed Workshop
DESCRIPTION:An essential part of our research efforts in TECoSA are our testbed activities. After a first testbed workshop in spring 2020\, our efforts on this thread have been slowed down due to several issues\, Covid-19 being one of them. With this workshop we want to renew our efforts\, discuss the current status and in particular sync with all stakeholders on use cases.  (All members welcome – please respond to the Outlook invitation circulated). \nThe purpose of the workshop is to (a) summarize the many threads of the last months on the establishment of the testbed; (b) synchronize everyone on the planning of the next months; and (c) collect feedback regarding integration and interception points from the partners over the next 6 months.  An agenda and some homework is outlined below. \n9:00 – 9:30 Welcome\, Intro\, Recap (Ambition\, Goals\, Previous Thoughts) \n9:30 – 10:00 Current status/thinking: 2 testbed threads with short-term / long-term time line / milestones \n10:00 – 10:50 Group work (including a break / leg stretch): Use cases for each thread (short-term / long-term)\,  additional scenarios\, participants prepare input upfront (see below) \n10:50 – 11:10 Demos \n11: 10 – 12:00 Feedbach from the group work\, discussion and conclusions \nPreparation:\nWe ask every participating partner to think about use cases\, software and/or equipment to incorporate at some point. In order to facilitate a “matching” contribution\, please refer to the “reference architecture” of the image below. Your contributions/preparations will be the input for the group work in the middle (10 – 10:50) of the workshop.

SUMMARY:Security for Industry - how to avoid a Cyber attack
DESCRIPTION:KTH’s research platforms on Digitalization and Industrial Transformation are organizing an online conference on “Security for Industry – How to avoid a Cyber attack” to be held on 26 May 2021. The aim is to bring together academia\, industry and other stakeholders around this critical theme. \n\n\n\nJoin the conference and get inspired by stimulating plenary presentations and industry overviews. Get updated with brief introductions on state-of-the-art made by our KTH researchers\, and interesting dialogs and panel discussions on the themes cybersecurity\, security-by-design and security risk assessment. We ramp-up with a discussion on what comes next. \nTo read more and register\, please go to:\nhttps://www.kth.se/en/forskning/forskningsplattformar/nyheter/conference-on-security-for-industry-how-to-avoid-a-cyber-attack-1.1061592

SUMMARY:Research Forum (Workshop 3): Micro-trends
DESCRIPTION:All trends starts with a micro-trend. During this interactive workshop\, we will explore a method to analyze micro-trends in general and more specifically what influence they can have on the TECoSA ecosystem. The result will be used for new research questions\, master thesis proposal and ideation for research project proposals. \nPreparation: Document micro-trends in your personal and professional life (this will be used as the input data) \nBefore our research forum in May\, I would like that you to do a short reflection on micro-trends. This will give additional value to our discussions and explorations. Prepare 2 micro-trends that you have observed during the Spring. \nA micro-trend is something that that might be the beginning of a change\, but we are not yet sure. \nPlease note\, it doesn’t have to be related to your business. \nExamples: \n\nDuring the last month\, 4 customers/colleagues/partners asked me [….]. Previously\, I seldom get that question.\nDuring the spring\, 4 of our suppliers/customers/colleagues has [….].\nBefore the pandemic […] was one important part of our customer/employer offer. Now\, the interest seems to be very low.\nWhen I am walking thru the city/attending digital events or customer meetings\, I have observed that […]. Previously this was not common.\n\nFrom Spring  2021\, the Research Forum will be open to all TECoSA members\, from academia and industry alike\, by invitation to tecos-all.  Facilitator: Martin Karlsson (martink9@kth.se)
