About
Siegfried Hollerer is a leading researcher at the forefront of industrial cybersecurity, specializing in the security of cyber-physical systems and collaborative robots (cobots) within smart factory environments. His work critically addresses the vulnerabilities emerging from the rapid digitalization of production, where interconnected machines and human-robot interaction create new attack surfaces. Hollerer’s most-cited paper, “Cobot attack: a security assessment exemplified by a specific collaborative robot” (2021, 29 citations), provides a pioneering security assessment that exposes critical risks in these systems. He further advances the field by developing practical frameworks for secure production networks, as seen in his 2020 work (7 citations), and by tackling the complex challenge of integrating functional safety with information security—a key requirement of the IEC 62061:2021 standard. Hollerer’s research is instrumental for engineers and security professionals seeking to protect modern, automated production lines from cyber threats, bridging the gap between isolated safety and security models to build resilient industrial ecosystems.
