NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) is hosting a 2-day workshop to discuss the cybersecurity implications to the architecture, engineering, construction and facility management (AECFM) industry caused by Construction 4.0 (i.e., the digitalization and automation of the construction sector).

The ultimate goal will be to define a research agenda to address the “cybersecurity implications of Construction 4.0”. The workshop will feature presentations on relevant topics such as Blockchain, Critical Infrastructure, Cyber-Physical Systems, Cybersecurity, Security Frameworks, Smart Construction Sites, Threat Modelling, followed by a round table to identify critical elements and define a research agenda.

Participation in the workshop will be possible by invitation only. The CBC Director Dr Abel Maciel will be happy to meet with attendees and discuss the technology after the workshop hours.
