Information Security and Cryptography
Information Security and Cryptography address the question of how to construct systems that operate securely, even in adversarial environments. Aside from its immense practical importance, this is a fascinating research area with roots in mathematics, theoretical computer science, networks, and systems.
At INSAIT, we carry out research on the foundations of Security and Privacy to advance the state-of-the-art of the entire secure systems lifecycle, encompassing design, analysis, construction, operation, and evaluation. This includes both the cryptographic building blocks for constructing secure systems, as well as methods and tools to compose these building blocks into large-scale systems and networks that are provably correct and well-engineered, e.g., are performant, usable, and fit for purpose.
INSAIT is now building up a research area in Information Security and Cryptography. Positions are open at all levels, across all related topics, including cryptography, system, software, and network security, and privacy.
