ROS2 Security

Learn to enable and manage security with ROS2

Course Overview

ROS2 has been released with security tools that allow it to secure robotics systems. They are disabled by default, but they can be enabled in order to make robots safer.

This course will endow you with the knowledge to work with the ROS2 security layer. You are going to learn how to enable security, how to work with specific security packages, and also how to make a turtlebot3 environment work in a safe layout.

What You Will Learn

What our students think

“I have had a great experience with The Construct. I believe much of what I have learned thus far regarding ROS has been from these courses and the concepts behind the implementation of ROS have been helpful even outside of ROS applications.”

Sam Daly

“I’m very happy about working with The Constructsim, it is affordable, it is very comfortable for me, and the tools in the GUI are very useful”

Bladimir Bacca Cortes

“I really liked the learning approach based on projects and practical examples and I found the final project with an actual robot to be very useful and challenging.”
