ESC is an educational, research-oriented tournament aimed at hacking into the hardware of embedded systems. First run in 2008, it is the oldest hardware security competition in the world, 2023 represents ESC's 17-year anniversary.
The Hack3D competition serves to raise awareness and generate discussion in engineering and research communities about security in the additive manufacturing field.
Competitors will have the opportunity to learn and use skills in graphics programming, file manipulation, and reverse engineering while gaining an understanding of the additive manufacturing supply-chain. Students who are interested in learning more about CAD, reverse-engineering, security, and additive manufacturing are encouraged to participate.
ESC is an educational, research-oriented tournament aimed at hacking into the hardware of embedded systems. First run in 2008, it is the oldest hardware security competition in the world, 2024 represents ESC's 17-year anniversary.
This year's ESC focuses on side channel attacks (SCA) on cyber-physical systems (CPS). Cyber-physical systems are used by hundreds of industries and in many critical infrastructure systems. If these CPSs are not properly setup they can leak information even if they are using cryptographically secure software. This year, teams will investigate a range of SCAs on an Arduino Uno based CPS running several firmware that expose various side channels.
The workshop aims to advance digital manufacturing through interdisciplinary contributions from academia, industry, and government. Key topics include security, AI, signal processing, robotics, network security, cybersecurity resilience, anomaly detection, standards, control-theory, encryption, CAD innovations, and workforce development. Contributions guiding future research directions are particularly encouraged.
