We organize a conference for collecting IMSc points in the context of the IT Security BSc course in the spring semester of the 2023/24 academic year at BME. Beyond IMSc point collection, the goal of the conference is to encourage students to deep-dive into some hot topics of IT security, to get familiar with the challenges and recent research results, and to share knowledge with other students in the form of short presentations. We do hope that the conference will shed light on the beauty of the field of IT security and some of its exciting research areas, and it will stimulate both the active participants of the conference and all other students enrolled in the IT security course to engage in further studies in the domain of IT security.
The Call for Papers (CfP) for the conference is available here.

Substations are responsible for distributing and transmitting electrical energy between power stations and consumers. The instrumentation and control of each substation is done by a digital system consisting of everyday (like PCs and switches) and special devices like feeder protection and control devices. The topic covers the introduction of special devices and protocols with their special vulnerabilities and countermeasures.

SCADA networks are controlling the electrical systems of all countries. A cyber attack on a SCADA system may create a blackout for wide regions and millions of people. Many attack vectors and vulnerabilites are present in these networks with different risk. The topic covers the general problem of cyber security of SCADA systems with a special attention on the security of a widely used protocol, the IEC 60870-5-104.
