Engineers and computer scientists show how bad actors can exploit browser-based control systems in industrial facilities with easy-to-deploy, difficult-to-detect malware.

ECE Professor Raheem Beyah has been named a Distinguished Scientist in the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) “for contributions in networking and security.” 

Raheem Beyah and Xiaojing Liao won third place at the Cyber Security Awareness Week (CSAW) Applied Research Competition, a prestigious contest for graduate and doctoral level security researchers who have published papers in the last year.

In the study, researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Indiana University Bloomington, and the University of California Santa Barbara created a scanning tool called ‘BarFinder’ to track down the unique features of bad repositories.

ECE Professor Raheem Beyah has been appointed as the associate chair for Strategic Initiatives and Innovation in the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, effective September 1.

Raheem Beyah has been named as the Motorola Foundation Professor in the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), effective March 1.

Five ECE students have been named recipients of National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowships.

SIx ECE faculty members have been awarded promotion or tenure, effective July 1, 2016.

ECE Professor Raheem Beyah was named as an Emerging Scholar in the January 26, 2017 edition of Diverse: Issues in Higher Education.

Cybersecurity researchers have developed a new form of ransomware that was able to take over control of a simulated water treatment plant.

Georgia Tech ECE alumna Xiaojing Liao has been named as a runner-up for the 2018 ACM SIGSAC Doctoral Dissertation Award.

Olatide Omojaro, Bige Deniz Unluturk, and Sizhuang Liang have been selected as the nominees from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) for teaching awards presented by Georgia Tech’s Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL).

ECE Professor Marilyn C. Wolf is the co-editor of the current special issue of the Proceedings of the IEEE, which is focused on safe and secure cyber-physical systems.

This robot is designed to lure in digital troublemakers who have set their sights on industrial facilities. HoneyBot will then trick the bad actors into giving up valuable information to cybersecurity professionals.
