What is Cyber Security? Security in cyber space What is cyber space? Cyberspace is an interactive domain made up of digital networks that is used to store, modify and communicate information. It includes the internet, but also the other information systems that support our businesses, infrastructure and services. UK Cyber Security Strategy, 2011 Crime in cyber space is cyber crime 3 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
How serious is Cyber Crime? IC3 (FBI) 300K complaints with claimed loss of 781M US$ (2013) Espionage. German economy losing 53 billion yearly Denmark Cyber crime is only growing crime. CfCS, Center for Cyber Security, Defense, 2013 NC3, National Cyber Crime Center, Police, 4 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
How to get Cyber Security? GCHQ 2012, 10 steps 1. Home and mobile working 2. User education & awareness 3. Incident management 4. Information risk management regime 5. Managing user privileges 6. Removable media controls 7. Monitoring 8. Secure configuration 9. Malware protection 10.Network security 5 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Cyber security education - trends Increasing relevance Great impact, affects all of us Increasing attention Students, industry and government More targets to attack, more targets to protect Pervasive computing implies pervasive security More real-world security into academic programs Ex. Real-world cryptography conference 6 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Challenges of the universities Finding qualified staff Competing resources and topics Dynamic curriculum Lack of equipment Lack of experience (e.g. forensics) Research? Innovation? 7 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Cyber Security at DTU Compute 3 sections with focus on security Language Based Technology Program and protocol analysis, model checking, access control Embedded Systems Engineering Pervasive security, wireless sensor networks, cloud computing Cryptology Design and analysis of cryptosystems. Trusted systems. Lightweight. MSc program in Cyber Security 2013 8 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Cyber Security @ DTU Prevent Detect React Reestablish Data Security Cryptology Language based security Biometrical Network security Cryptology Practical Network Security Emergency Response Security Forensics 9 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
ISEC, Center for Information Security www.isec.dtu.dk Established (March 27) Collaboration between four departments at DTU Mission: Teach, research, public sector consultancy in CS Vision: Leading academic CS entity in Copenhagen 10 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Innovation - Dencrypt Spin-out from DTU Established Dec 23, 2013 with Borean Innovation Products for Cyber Protection 1 st product, Oct : voice encryption for mobile devices Patent on dynamic encryption, filed 2011 Currently 6 employees, offices in Copenhagen and Ålborg 11 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
Outtro: Cyber Security in DK More education, more awareness Academic programs must be further developed Academic programs must be collaborative between industry, society, government, global academics Denmark is late compared to US, UK, Israel, UAE,.. More research, more innovation Funding to build up CS environments 12 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark
