Trustworthy Critical infrastructures: Threats, Vulnerabilities and Protection through NERC CIP Compliance
The PES and IAS Chapters will sponsor a technical seminar on the topic of Trustworthy Power-Grid Critical infrastructures: Threats, Vulnerabilities and Countermeasures through NERC CIP (North American Electric Reliability Corporation - Critical Infrastructure Protection). The session will be held on Friday, April 24, 2015 at PSE&G’s Hadley Road Facility, 4000 Hadley Road, South Plainfield, NJ 07080-1192.
Abstract: Critical cyber-physical infrastructures, such as the power grid, integrate networks of computational and physical processes to provide the people across the globe with essential functionalities and services. Protecting these critical infrastructures is a vital necessity because the failure of these systems would have a debilitating impact on economic security and public health and safety. In this talk, I will i) focus on real past and potential future threats against critical infrastructures; ii) discuss the challenges in design, implementation, and analysis of security solutions to protect cyber-physical platforms; iii) introduce novel classes of working systems that we have developed to overcome these challenges in practice; and iv) present NERC CIP (North American Electric Reliability Corporation - Critical Infrastructure Protection) requirements and their regulations in current real-world platforms.

Saman Zonouz of Rutgers University
Trustworthy Critical infrastructures: Threats, Vulnerabilities and Protection through NERC CIP Compliance
Biography:
Saman Zonouz is an Assistant Professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Rutgers University since September 2014 and the Director of the 4N6 Cyber Security and Forensics Laboratory. Before, he held a tenure-track position at the University of Miami for three years. He has been awarded NSF CAREER Award in 2015, the Best Student Paper Award at IEEE SmartGridComm 2013, Google Security Award, the University EARLY CAREER Research Award in 2012 as well as the Provost Research Award in 2011. The 4N6 research has been funded by over $5.5M in grants from National Science Foundation (NSF), Office of Naval Research (ONR), Department of Energy – Advanced Research Projects Agency Energy (DOE ARPA-E), WinRiver, Google, and Fortinet Corporation. Saman’s current research focuses on systems security and privacy, trustworthy cyber-physical critical infrastructures, binary and malware analysis and reverse engineering, as well as adaptive intrusion tolerance architectures. Saman has served as the chair, program committee member, and a reviewer for international conferences and journals. He obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Science, specifically, intrusion tolerance architectures for the cyber-physical infrastructures, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2011.
