Assignment

Automated cyber security testing 
 
The amount of machines in a radar increases and the risk of a system getting hacked increases. For that reason, focus on cyber security is essential.
 
The assignment consists of two parts:

  •  Investigate the radar systems and establish scenarios that show how the system can be possibly compromised.
  • Investigate if there are frameworks available to automate these test scenarios and implement such a solution. With this tool, the scenarios can be included in nightly regression tests of the radar systems.
