ZISC: 20 years Celebration
On March 6, 2024, we celebrated the 20 years of the ZISC center with a special event and a networking Apero at ETH Zurich’s Audi Max and Dozentenfoyer.
In the event, Prof. Srdjan Capkun, the Chair of the center, provided a brief history of the center and an overview of its main achievements:
In addition, the audience received research talks from Prof. Kenny Paterson and Prof. Florian Tramèr, both from ETH Zurich and part of the ZISC faculty:
The industry talk of the event was given by Mona Vij from Intel Labs.
Finally, the event included a panel discussion hosted by Srdjan Capkun. The panelists included Kenny Paterson, Mona Vij, Adi Shamir and Florian Schütz:

DEMO: GPS spoofing
Today, it is possible to spoof a GPS receiver to any arbitrary location. The video demonstrates how trivial it is to spoof GPS signals with a device that is entirely back-pack compatible and force the phone to believe it is in a completely different location. Not only that, it is also possible to force the receiver to believe it is navigating along a particular route even though it is completely static. The increasing availability of low-cost radio hardware platforms make it feasible to execute such attacks with less than few hundred dollars worth of hardware equipment. Moreoever, the attack is completely wireless and does not require the software of the mobile phone (containing the GPS receiver) to be modified in any way.
