This course is designed to introduce emerging topics related to cybersecurity for networked electrical & electronics systems and cyber-physical systems. The course will provide theoretical understanding and practical basis of cybersecurity for networked systems including Shannon's secrecy system, information-theoretic security, wiretrap channels, cyber-attacks on electrical and electronics systems (smart power grid, embedded systems, connected electric vehicles, space communications, etc.), general cybersecurity models, jamming and antijamming, broadcast/interference channels cooperative secrecy, interference and broadcast channel with confidential messages, cooperative secrecy, and security limits of Gaussian and wireless channels. Graduate students will be required to complete individual advanced level research in an area beyond the scope of the undergraduate requirements that demonstrates a higher level of mastery in the subject matter with additional required deliverables representative of graduate level work, as determined by the instructor. Prerequisite(s): A minimum grade of "C" in ENGR 2332 and EENG 3421 or CSCI 5332 or IT 5434. Cross Listing(s): EENG 5538.
