The seminar is organized by CRIT and will focus on themes concerning open systems, security attacks, and ICT systems as secure and trustworthy by design.
Some of TAPPS partners (fortiss, VOSYS, ST, EMC) will participate as speakers and show the intermediate results of this project, and will go more in depth in partners’ core competences related to Cyber security for Cyber Physical Systems.
3rd International IFIP Workshop on Emerging Ideas and Trends in Engineering of Cyber-Physical Systems (EITEC’ 2016). The workshop is part of CPS Week 2016.
Christian Prehofer (fortiss), Oliver Horst (fortiss), Riccardo Dodi (FCSR), Arjan Geven (TTTech), George Kornaros (TEI), Eleonora Montanari (EMC) and Michele Paolino (VOS) submitted the paper with the title: “Towards Trusted Apps Platforms for Open CPS”, which got accepted.
Abstract: For many cyber-physical systems, there is a strong trend towards open systems, which can be extended during operation by instantly adding functionalities on demand. We discuss this trend in the context of automotive, medical and industrial automation systems. The goal of this paper is to elaborate the research challenges of new platforms for such open systems. A main problem is that such CPS apps shall be able to access and modify safety critical device internals. We present results of the TAPPS (Trusted Apps for open CPS) project, which develops an end-to-end solution for development and deployment of trusted apps. The main approach is to devise different execution environments for highly-trusted CPS apps. We present the architecture approach and its key components, and methods for CPS apps, including tool chain and development support.
6th International Conference on e-Democracy. The theme is: citizen rights in the world of the new computing paradigms.
Christian Prehofer (fortiss), George Kornaros (TEI) and Michele Paolino (VOS) published and presented the paper entitled “TAPPS – Trusted Apps for open Cyber-Physical Systems“.
Abstract. Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are devices with sensors and actuators which link the physical with the virtual world. For CPS there is a strong trend towards open systems, which can be extended during operation by instantly adding functionalities on demand. The main goal of the TAPPS (Trusted Apps for open CPS) project is the development of a platform for CPS apps which can also access and modify safety critical device internals. As current, rich execution platforms for apps are limited in security, TAPPS will provide and validate an end-to-end solution for development and deployment of trusted apps. The project will develop a dedicated, real-time Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) for highlytrusted CPS apps. Additionally, TAPPS also includes an App Store and
a model-based tool chain for trusted application development including verification tools. The multi-level trusted apps platform and tool chain are matured and validated in health and automotive application domains using industrial, realistic use cases paving the way for future exploitation in further demanding application domains.
