About the Opportunity:
A student-focused hackathon to design cybersecurity solutions for IoT networks.
Participants build a system to score device trust, detect policy drift, and provide explainable security outputs using network telemetry.
The challenge emphasizes realistic AI/ML use, SOC-style capabilities, and actionable security insights.
Theme / Problem Statement:
IoT Trust & Drift Analytics: Score IoT devices’ trustworthiness, detect policy drift, and explain exactly why a device appears risky based on network behavior.
Objective:
Design a unified solution that provides:
Dynamic Trust Score: Time-varying risk score per device/class based on communication behavior.
Policy Conformance & Drift Intelligence: Detect hard violations and soft drift over time.
Evidence-First Explainability: Include what changed, why it matters, confidence/severity, and supporting telemetry.
Deliverables:
Idea + Architecture + Evaluation Plan (full implementation not required for initial submission).
Document must include:
Executive Summary
Threat/Failure Model
Technical & Functional Architecture Diagram
Telemetry Plan & Dataset Strategy
Trust Score Model
Policy Model & Drift Logic
AI/ML Component
Baseline Protection Strategy
Explainability Output Specification
Evaluation Plan
Tools / Tech Stack
