International Workshop TOwards A Safer systems’ architecture Through Security (TOASTS)
co-located with SAFECOMP 2024, Florence, Italy, Sept. 17 th, 2024
Welcome everybody! This is the website of International Workshop TOwards A Safer systems’ architecture Through Security (TOASTS)
Check out the Call for Papers!
The workshop covers various layers of the system stack aimed at facilitating the design and
implementation of safer and more secure architectures for complex, networked systems. These layers
encompass: i)Hardware designs ensuring the integrity of executed code. ii) Operating system (OS)
features providing robust isolation of processes. iii) Trusted applications for self-diagnosing system states.
iv) Monitoring indicators to detect malicious activities on computing devices and network links
exploitations. Integrating these layers offers a dual benefit to the safety of complex systems and
networks. Firstly, their design and operation would encompass tested methods to prevent errors that
could lead to failures. Secondly, addressing security issues reduces the risks associated with
cyberattacks that could potentially compromise the structural integrity of facilities and the well-being of
operators and users alike.
