The simulator includes (at the bottom of the pictures) a pneumatic industrial process based on FESTO elements. The process includes a compressor (located at the back of the panel). A Flow transmitter and Pressure transmitter send signals to a SIEMENS 1200 series PLC (located at the upper left side in the pictures). Once the simulator is operated, the compressor pushes compressed air to the air tank and after the pressure greaches the defined pressure, a piston (located at the right side in the pictures) moves up and down. The control system controls its speed. On the right upper side in the pictures, a Level 0 SigaGuard system monitors the activity of the pneumatic system. On the top left side, there is a RAD GW installed in order to have best connectivity to the simulator.

Oren Lab

This lab deals with studying the security of actual physical systems, both by attacking them and by proposing ways to defend against attacks. In the lab, experiments involve highly sensitive measurement equipment such as oscilloscopes, wideband receivers and signal generators,and apply advanced techniques such as correlation power analysis, differential power analysis and template attacks to assess the impact of side-channel attacks by measuring the leakage of a target device, such as an IoT device, under test.
