A lab for robot cybersecurity
In robotics, security is safety. A vulnerable robot is not a data-breach risk — it is a machine that can move, lift, drive or operate on a person while under an attacker's control. The Robot Cybersecurity Lab measures, discloses and improves the security of robots, and quantifies that thesis in the open — with live vulnerability data, severity scores and cited research.
The attack surface
Every entry point — from the senses to the cloud — funnels into full physical and data control of the machine.
Defense in depth
The same physicality that makes a robot flaw dangerous shows how to contain it — in layers. Harden the middleware (SROS2 / DDS-Security), verify the robot's own plans and watch for intrusion at runtime, then wrap both in disclosure, scoring and standards — so no single failure reaches the actuators unchecked.
How the lab works
One continuous loop: find, score, record, disclose, standardize.
