Security of Cloud Services with Low-Performance Devices in Critical Infrastructures

As part of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0 Cloud services are increasingly interacting with low-performance devices that are used in automation. This results in security issues that will be presented in this paper. Particular attention is paid to so-called critical infrastructures. The authors intend to work on the addressed security challenges as part of a funded research project, using electrical actuators and battery storages as specific applications. The core ideas of this research project are also presented in this paper.
