THE SAFETY-CRITICAL SYSTEMS CLUB, Workshop:
The Relationship between Safety and Security in Software-Based Systems
A workshop held in conjunction with the Safecomp conference.
Thursday 25 September, 2008 - NewcastleThe fields of safety and security have developed differently, and largely independently, as the application of computer systems in many domains has itself developed over the past half century or so. Increasingly, however, safety and security concerns come together in the context of a single system, and their separate treatment is proving to be inadequate.
This workshop, co-located with SAFECOMP 2008 at Newcastle University and organised in cooperation with EWICS, will debate the issues involved.

In the safety field, the main concern has been with preventing computer misbehaviour from causing physical harm to people or the environment. This most often arises in embedded systems.
Security, on the other hand, has been focused on computer misuse to access and exploit confidential information, to corrupt or destroy data, or otherwise to interfere with the proper use of information - particularly where the systems concerned are networked and remotely accessible.
The ever increasing exploitation of networking technologies means that it is now much more likely that both safety and security will be significant for a single system, giving rise to a need for both to be taken into account during development, assurance and operation.
