RAD Lab Workshop: Security by Design for the Internet of Things

Lachlan Urquhart and Mattis van ‘t Schip are organising this workshop to explore the socio-technical, legal, and design implications of security by design.

As part of this, we are hoping to bring together researchers in the Netherlands and Scotland working on this area too.

There are shifts in EU legal landscape mandating design and development changes for security targeting consumer Internet of Things systems in the EU Cyber Resilience Act and the ETSI EN 303 Secure by Design Standard, alongside at UK level in the UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act.

The workshop aims to foster interdisciplinary conversations across computer science; human factors; design research; tech law; STS; criminology and more through a series of introductory talks/break out discussion activities.

Initial topics of interest regulatory, design and socio-technical aspects of:

• Security across the lifecycle of IoT products.
• Security across IoT supply chains.
• Managing interdependencies across data, software, hardware in the IoT.
• Usable Security for IoT security
• Certification and governance mechanisms for IoT security.

If you are interested in joining, please save the date, and let me know if you are attending.

We are still putting together the programme, so we’d be keen to hear if you’d like to speak about your work – if so please let us know when you respond.

Also, do share this with other researchers who you think might be interested in attending, particularly ECRs/PhDs.
