67922-01 - Seminar: Internet of Things: Privacy and Security (6 CP)
| Semester | spring semester 2023 |
| Course frequency | Irregular |
| Lecturers | Isabel Wagner (isabel.wagner@unibas.ch, Assessor) |
| Content | Internet of Things (IoT) devices are increasingly common and popular, for example in the form of voice assistants, smart watches, or smart home gadgets. However, privacy and security failures of IoT devices often make the news: from the Mirai botnet that targeted IP cameras, to baby monitors that can be turned into spy devices, to doorbells that share video with third parties. In this seminar, we study attacks and defenses for IoT security and privacy. Each participant gives a presentation and writes a report discussing a particular attack or defense. The participants also explore the practicalities of attacking and defending real IoT devices in a programming project. |
| Learning objectives | * reading and understanding scientific literature * independent solution of programming projects * preparing and presenting scientific talks * conducting scientific discussions with peers * writing and discussing scientific reports |
| Bibliography | Will be provided during the seminar. |

| Assessment format | continuous assessment |
| Assessment details | Regular attendance of the seminar sessions is required to obtain credit points for the course. Seminar participants must - write a written report on their seminar topic (25%) - give a presentation on their topic (25%) - give written feedback (peer review) on another participant's report (15%) - submit the implementation of their programming project (25%) - give a short presentation on their programming project (10%) All four aspects are individually graded on a scale of 1.0-6.0. The overall seminar grade is the weighted average of these individual grades, using the weighting shown in parentheses. |
