About

Kacper Wardega is a researcher at the forefront of cybersecurity and resilience in autonomous and networked cyber-physical systems. His work primarily focuses on the security of multi-robot systems and the emerging "weakly-hard" paradigm for networked control. Wardega’s major contributions lie in exposing and countering sophisticated threats, particularly physical masquerade attacks where adversaries infiltrate multi-robot teams by spoofing identities. He has developed novel observation planning and detection frameworks to identify such stealthy attackers, ensuring system integrity even under duress. His most cited work, "Exploring weakly-hard paradigm for networked systems" (2019, 19 citations), provides a foundational framework for designing real-time systems that can tolerate occasional communication failures without catastrophic failure. With a growing citation footprint and a focus on safety-critical applications—from automotive systems to defense robotics—Wardega is shaping how we build resilient, attack-aware autonomous systems. His research is essential reading for anyone working at the intersection of robotics, control theory, and cybersecurity.
