Hackathon: Public Key Infrastructures

Join us for our full day Secu­rity Hackathon/ Work­shop on Public Key Infra­struc­tures

In this Hackathon, partic­i­pants will explore how to apply PKI to secure different layers of the indus­trial ecosystem, inspired by the Open Industry 4.0 (OI4) archi­tec­ture.

 

🗓️ When & Where

May 27th in https://demofabrik-siegen.de/

 

🤷🏻‍♀️ What to expect:

A day full of concise insights, inten­sive hands-on sessions, and valu­able exchange with secu­rity experts and other members directly on-site. We don’t just want to talk about secu­rity; we want to do it! Deepen your knowl­edge, develop prac­tical solu­tions together, and actively contribute to strength­ening the secu­rity aspects in our imple­men­ta­tions.

 

🧩 Planned Topic Tracks:

We plan to focus on highly rele­vant secu­rity aspects in the core areas of the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance. Initial ideas for parallel tracks include:

  1. Track 1: Edge Device Secu­rity using PKI: How do we effec­tively secure devices in the field?
  2. Track 2: Secure MQTT Commu­ni­ca­tion: Securing use cases like Product Change Noti­fi­ca­tion via AAS.
  3. Track 3: PKI Life­cycle Manage­ment: Focus on chal­lenges like certifi­cate renewal & Offline PKI.

 

🚨 Shape the agenda! Your input is crucial!

This day thrives on your exper­tise and real-world chal­lenges! Do you have specific secu­rity prob­lems from your prac­tice that you would like to address? Are there tech­nolo­gies or use cases in the OI4 context whose secu­rity partic­u­larly inter­ests you?  We cordially invite you to contribute your own ideas, topic requests, or specific prob­lems that we can address in the work­shop or hackathon tracks. Your input helps us create an agenda that offers maximum value for all members.
