Cybersecurity Threat Modelling and Assurance for AI-enabled Critical System

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being rapidly integrated into critical systems across a broad range of technical domains including aerospace, autonomous mobility, critical infrastructure, defence, energy, health care, manufacturing, maritime, medical devices, oil & gas, and urban rail. In addition to enabling higher levels of automation and performance improvements, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into critical systems brings new sources of cybersecurity risk. New methods and tools are needed to support high stakes decisions about the use of AI in ways that could potentially result in harm to people, assets and the environment.

This full day public workshop presents an innovative threat modeling framework and accessible tools to support threat modelling for AI-enabled critical systems, and then capturing an understanding of identified threats and potential controls in a cybersecurity assurance case.

This framework helps stakeholders visualize real-world attack chains across systems and prioritize defenses to control these threats. Capturing this understanding of threats and controls in a cybersecurity assurance case yields a single, collaborative source of truth for stakeholders whose professional reputation rests upon defensible confidence that the system is sufficiently protected. With this combination of threat modelling and structured argumentation, stakeholders move beyond the anxiety of ‘what was missed’ to confidence supported by an audit-ready demonstration with traceability from the system model to the top-level cybersecurity goals.

In addition to seminar-style presentations, participants who bring their own WIFI-enabled laptop computers will have a “hands-on” opportunity to experiment with software tools for both threat modelling and assurance cases.

This public workshop is open to all. However, registration is required in advance on first come, first served basis, with registration limited to 35 participants.

Thanks to sponsor support, we’re offering a limited number of fully subsidized seats to the first 25 participants!
