Networked control systems (NCS) are at the base of many important processes in our society. These systems control our cyber-infrastructure (power grid, water distribution, oil and gas pipelines) and critical systems such as airports. The increasing requirements of efficiency are pushing designers to remove the traditional 'air gaps' placed between control system networks and the rest of the interconnected world. Features such as remote administration and integration with business procedures are becoming commonplace.

Security research in the SRG group is organized in two parts: operating system security and security assessment for the cyber-infrastructure. More details about recent projects in these areas can be found here:

• Operating System Security
• Security Assessment for the cyber-infrastructure
