The Maryland Innovation & Security Institute, its DreamPort program, and sponsor U.S. Cyber Command will hold a cyber exercise November 16–19, designed to highlight the importance of control systems’ cybersecurity and critical infrastructure cybersecurity. “Hack the Building 2020” will include more than 45 offensive and defensive teams from industry, academia, civilian agencies, and the Department of Defense.

The event is a virtual challenge built around a specially-designated, real-world target: A live, fully-equipped 150,000 square-foot “smart” office building near Annapolis, Maryland that on-site and remote teams are challenged to attack, through its diverse IT, Internet of Things, access control, surveillance camera, building automation, and other systems.
