Secure Digital Infrastructure & Society Series 2020
The TalTech Centre for Digital Forensics and Cyber Security is running a series of security and digitalisation events in collaboration with its partners with a particular focus on the cyber security of the transport sector. This is a unique opportunity to explore this important issue through a range of courses, a summer school and a hackathon, with each looking at a different aspect of the subject and with a range of target audiences.
Transportation systems are becoming ever more complex, interdependent, and automated. At the same time, offensive cyber capabilities are also developing rapidly. By bringing together domain and cyber security experts, we will examine a range of cyber threats and develop methods and procedures to mitigate the risks against aviation, maritime, automotive and smart city environments.
In addition, several annual cyber and e-governance related events including the Interdisciplinary Cyber Research (ICR) conference, CyberSpike and e-Estonia Dreamtour are being held again this year.
