Follow the Yellow Brick Road – Security Standards & Autonomous Systems


Details
Join us for an engaging Thursday evening filled with knowledge sharing, networking, and practical insights into the world of system security. This session is designed for professionals working with or around system and software development, security requirements, or autonomous technologies — and anyone interested in the crossover between industry standards and real-world applications.
The evening consists of two parts:
***
📌 Talk: Forget the numbers, follow the Yellow Brick Road
How various standards can help derive requirements for security
Security standards are often seen as rigid frameworks full of numbers and technical jargon. But what if they could be your guide — not your constraint?
In this talk, we’ll explore how a variety of industry standards can support and inspire the development of solid security requirements. You’ll gain practical insights into how security principles from sectors beyond your own can be reused or adapted in your work.
Whether you're new to security standards or already deep in the weeds, this talk will offer a fresh perspective and plenty to think about.
***
🛠 Workshop: Securing Autonomy – From Assistance to Full Automation
After the talk, we’ll move from theory to practice.
This hands-on workshop invites you to apply what you've heard to a real-world scenario: writing both functional and non-functional security requirements for autonomous vehicles.
We’ll start with a quick refresher on vehicle automation levels, then dive into collaborative exercises that challenge your thinking and sharpen your skills.

This event is part of "ICT Knowledge Hub"
ICT Knowledge Hub is the collective name for a series of interactive theme evenings where we dive into the depths of modern system development together. From Living Documentation to testing, from requirements to Domain-Driven Design: each event offers inspiration, practical experiences and directly applicable tools.
The evenings are meant for professionals who want to learn, reflect and connect, whether you are a developer, analyst, tester, product owner or researcher. Together, we build a community of like-minded people who are curious about better collaboration, smarter approaches and sustainable solutions.
ICT Knowledge Hub is organised by ICT Improve in collaboration with ICT Group. We invite speakers from the field as well as from academia, and offer space to anyone with something valuable to share.
Come and listen, join the discussion, and learn together from each other's practice and perspective.
