Kickoff
Course purpose, evidence expectations, engineering flow, assessment, and the next action.

CPIT-455 lectures are published as interactive ISCARB experiences. Static PDFs are no longer part of this lecture library.
Open lecturesEvery approved chapter will appear here in the same interactive HTML format. Chapters not yet converted remain unavailable until their interactive version is approved.
Course purpose, evidence expectations, engineering flow, assessment, and the next action.
Dependability properties, sociotechnical stack, evidence, owner, sign-off, and a bounded readiness verdict.
Failure probability, availability, MTTF, MTBF, redundancy, and quantitative decision support.
Hazards, risks, safety cases, SIL reasoning, evidence, and accountable sign-off.
Threats, controls, requirements, assurance boundaries, and inspectable security evidence.
Recovery, continuity, degraded operation, monitoring, and learning after failure.
Reuse decisions, integration risks, cost trade-offs, and source-backed evidence.
Component selection, interface risk, supplier evidence, certification, and integration tests.
Distributed failures, latency, observability, fault boundaries, and operational evidence.
