Security and Trust in IoT Systems
Chuan Yue| chuanyue@mines.edu
The rapid adoption of smart, adaptive, and connected devices is taking us to the IoT (Internet of Things) era. IoT systems including Smart Home, Smart City, and Smart Grid bring significant benefits to us; however, they also quickly become the attractive targets of a variety of security and privacy attacks. This project aims to quantify the security and privacy risks in IoT systems, and foster the trust in IoT systems. Good programming skills as well as basic cryptography or machine learning knowledge are expected for students who are interested in this project.
