Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie:
- 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati. - 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione - 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

This module provides an understanding of the fundamental principles of the security of Operational Technology (OT) in an industrial context. The module will cover the standards, key concepts and methodologies involved in securing OT systems commonly used in industrial environments, such as factories, power plants, and other critical infrastructure.
The module will begin by
exploring particularities of OT systems and the unique security challenges associated with OT environments. Different aspects of OT systems and their implication for security are studied, such as network technology and network architecture. Challenges related to product lifecycle and key management as well as existing solutions to those problems are explored. A specific focus is put on the implementation of standard IEC 62443.
Requisiti
Students should have a basic understanding of computer networks and security concepts. It is recommended that students have completed introductory courses in computer networking and security before taking this module.
Pre-reading material required for specific labs may be provided.
Obiettivi di apprendimento
Upon completion of the module, students should be able to
- Understand the unique security challenges associated with OT environments
- Comprehend the main cybersecurity standards related to OT environments
- Identify and assess the risks and threats associated with OT systems
- Understand which security measures are suitable to protect OT systems and how to respond to incidents
Contenuti del modulo
The module will address the following topics:
- An introduction to the particularities of OT systems in comparison to IT systems and Sensor Technology
- Securing OT-relevant aspects of SCADA, DCS & ICS
- Communication technology relevant to OT environment as well as the implications of air-gapped and connected systems
- Threat models for OT systems
- Product lifecycle, in particular issues related to key generation and key management
- Incident Response in an OT context
- The application of Standard IEC 62443, in particular weakness analysis, post-incidence analysis and auditing
Metodologie di insegnamento e apprendimento
In addition to lectures, the module is completed by exercises on simulated OT environments corresponding to industry standards. The exercises will apply the content from the lectures to specific situations inspired by the challenges of real world environments.
