In the age of smartphones, gaming, apps and super-gadgets, the industrial systems that control elevators, heating and cooling systems, water treatment plants and the like just don't seem all that glamorous and they are often a low priority. That's exactly why they are so vulnerable to takeover by hackers, as Dr. Ray Vaughn, vice president for research at UAH, knows all too well. Prior to coming to UAH, Dr. Vaughn and a research assistant helped nab one such miscreant. Dr. Vaughn will speak June 4 on the "Top Ten Concerns with Security of Industrial Control Systems in Critical Infrastructure Applications" at the sixth annual North Alabama Cybersecurity Summit being held June 4-5. Also at the conference, UAH Chief Information Security Officer Russ Ward will be part of a June 5 panel discussion on mobile device security.
