Trustworthiness is one of nine important 'Aspects,' or dimensions, of cyber-physical systems (CPS) described in the recently-released Framework (https://pages.nist.gov/cpspwg) developed by the CPS Public Working Group. Trustworthiness comprises concerns related to safety, security, privacy, resilience, and reliability. While these concerns have traditionally been addressed separately, the nature of cyber-physical systems creates profound interactions between these concerns, requiring new design, engineering, operations, and assurance approaches.

This workshop will convene thought leaders from industry, academia, and government with expertise in engineering, physical, and information sciences to examine the measurement challenges and opportunities for progress surrounding new concepts for trustworthiness to CPS and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Presentations and discussion sessions will focus on the integration of approaches from safety, security, resilience, reliability, and privacy engineering to the conceptualization, realization, and assurance of safe, secure, and effective CPS and IoT systems. Join us and contribute your ideas for trustworthy solutions linking the digital and physical worlds.
