IT security newly conceived: Half-time in the “SiZero” research project
Researchers at the University of Bayreuth are working with partners from industry and the Wunsiedel municipal utility on new methods for securing IT in critical infrastructure. At the halfway point of the "SiZero" project, a prototype has now been presented that shows how the control of decentralised energy systems can be secured. In addition, a concept for monitoring and controlling mobile heat supply systems, e.g. mobile heating containers, has been developed.
This prototype has already successfully demonstrated how the safe control of decentralised energy systems can be implemented.

The aim of SiZero is also to enable secure remote access to the control of the biomass cogeneration plant in the energy park of Stadtwerke Wunsiedel GmbH. Here is a look at the connected wood pellet production facility.
