Security and privacy
Overview
The security and privacy research theme includes foundational and applied research on the design and analysis of secure and privacy-preserving systems. Our research interests include access control, data provenance, secure software engineering, authentication schemes and methods, web security, threat modelling, cryptographic protocols, and privacy-preserving machine learning. We have applied our research to a variety of systems, such as electronic voting, secure storage, anti-counterfeiting technologies, cyber-physical systems and critical infrastructures.
Our members collaborate with a wide range of external stakeholders from academia, industry (Intel, Visa, Mastercard, NCC Group, etc), government (NCSC, Swiss Chancellery, the Flemish government, etc), standardisation bodies (LoRa Alliance, FIDO Alliance, ISO/IEC )
