Building Automation Systems (BASs) support facilities management by connecting building actuators and sensors to data networks and enabling computer control. Such systems have great potential for applications, but many of these applications open new security risks because they increase the attack surface of the BAS. This project is developing security architectures and principles for BAS middleware, with a focus on strategies for limiting the risks in connecting the BAS to an enterprise information system.
