Exploring Security in the Bio-Digital Stack 26 Workshop

Exploring Security in the Bio-Digital Stack workshop

Abstract

This workshop introduces participants to biocybersecurity, also known as cyberbiosecurity, and examines how biological knowledge and techniques can be adapted or repurposed within cyber and cyber-physical systems. Following an introduction, participants will work through facilitated case studies to identify potential risks, consequences, and design considerations at the intersection of biology and cybersecurity. The session intends to help participants develop an intuitive understanding of this emerging field through discussion and analysis. No advanced background in biology or cybersecurity is required; only curiosity and a willingness to ask questions are needed.
