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, a hackathon and courses, 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.

Please note that several events are currently rescheduled or postponed! Updated information will be available soon.

• 8 - 12 December 2020 in TalTech MEKTORY Raja 15 Tallinn Estonia

“Whatever moves in and around the smart cities of the future — planes, trains, automotive and ships”. The Cyber Security Summer School has a tradition of bringing together high-profile experts, researchers, and domain experts into a dialogue about the most challenging issues of today. As well as inspiring speakers, the Summer School will include small groups of participants who will tackle pressing problems from a strategic/political level all the way down to some technical vulnerabilities.
