Secure systems

We are working on various aspects of secure systems design and implementation. This includes development of the basic building blocks of secure systems as well as complete solutions and tools. We particularly focus on the areas of secure identity cards and documents as well as authentication technology, for example by creating end-to-end authentication solutions such as the Zone Trusted Information Channel (ZTIC). A new research topic is secure sensor and actuator networks. The secure virtualization project is investigating tools for security management in virtualized environments and setting up trusted virtual domains.

Finally, our team specializes in delivering these technologies in service engagements with customers facing new security challenges to their systems and applications.
