US-Korea Workshop on Security and Privacy for Internet of Things

美韩物联网安全与隐私研讨会该项目支持举办一个探索性研讨会，探讨在乔治华盛顿大学（GWU）与韩国互联网安全局（KISA）和首尔国立大学（SNU）的韩国研究人员之间建立研究合作，研究物联网（IoT）安全与隐私的新兴领域。物联网安全和隐私是一个涉及社会许多方面的话题，从农业到交通运输再到医疗保健。由于韩国研究人员建立了独特的物联网测试平台，这个拟议的研讨会有可能为未来的研究合作创造大量机会，这可能导致物联网安全和隐私方面的基础研究突破。这些突破可以带来具有国际影响力的研究和教育影响。该项目还将对来自美国的本科生和研究生产生重大的教育影响，特别是参与韩国首尔高丽大学海外留学项目的GWU学生。本次研讨会预计将汇集以下两组研究人员的协同研究专业知识：（i）在物联网相关基础安全和隐私问题方面拥有丰富经验的美国研究人员。(ii)韩国研究人员是拟议的讲习班和随后计划的合作的优秀合作伙伴。与其他国家相比，韩国物联网技术的研究增长和采用速度要快得多，提供了更多的资金，并取得了更好和更先进的成果。该研讨会将美国研究人员带到韩国，以便他们可以访问韩国物联网测试平台，并与韩国同行讨论未来合作的愿景和具体（技术）计划，这反过来又有助于实现重大研究影响，并为成功部署具有适当安全性和隐私保护的大规模物联网系统铺平道路。了解物联网中的安全和隐私问题，并在实际系统中实现这些想法，是一项强大的智力研究奋进。

US-Korea Workshop on Security and Privacy for Internet of ThingsThis project supports the organization of an exploratory workshop on establishing research collaborations between George Washington University (GWU) and Korean researchers in Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) and Seoul National University (SNU) on the emerging area of security and privacy for Internet of Things (IoT). IoT security and privacy is a topic that cuts across many facets of the society, from agriculture to transportation to health-care. Thanks to the unique IoT testbeds built by Korean researchers, this proposed workshop has the potential to foster substantial opportunities for future research collaborations that may lead to fundamental research breakthroughs in IoT security and privacy. These breakthroughs can bring about research and educational impacts with international reach. The project will also have significant educational impacts on undergraduate and graduate students from the US, especially GWU students who are involved in the study-abroad program in Korea University, Seoul, Korea.This workshop is expected to bring together synergized research expertise from the following two groups of researchers: (i) US researchers with extensive experience on foundational security and privacy issues related to IoT. (ii) Korean researchers who are excellent partners for the proposed workshop and the subsequent planned collaborations. Compared with other countries, the research of IoT technologies has seen much faster growth and adoption in Korea, provided a larger amount of funding, and accomplished better and more advanced results. The workshop brings US researchers to Korea so they can visit the Korean IOT testbeds and discuss with their Korean counterparts about both visions and concrete (technical) plans for future collaborations, which can in turn help realize major research impacts and pave the way to a successful realistic deployment of large-scale IoT system with proper security and privacy protection. Understanding the security and privacy issues in IoT and realizing the ideas in a practical system constitute a strong intellectual research endeavor.
