Linux Security for Embedded Systems Workshop


The aim of the course is to explore state-of-the-art security techniques and measures in the area of embedded and cloud in the form of an interactive workshop. In particular, less well-known security features and techniques will be addressed and learned with the participants in the form of security challenges. This is not a classic security training with ready-made instructions, but is rather discussed using the “playful hacking” method – this consists of

  • Short theory introduction (frontal),
  • Hacking challenge with support (hands-on)
  • Discussion of countermeasures (round table)

Agenda

  • eBPF
  • Shell and Kernel
  • container security (namespaces and control groups)
