Research Areas
We research a wide range of cybersecurity topics. Our current projects span network measurement and traffic analysis, network security, and testbeds for security. We study ways to improve technologies and skills of security teams. We build systems and prototypes, and much of the research is grounded in operational deployment.
Network Measurement and Traffic Analysis
We aim to reliably measure and analyze network data to understand current and emerging threats. We research ways to generate, collect and analyze large volumes of data in ever-evolving networks. We develop, deploy and operate a state of the art infrastructure for network measurement and traffic analysis to gain cyber situational awareness.
Network Security
We focus on technologies enabling security analyses over big data. We research mechanisms for efficient operation of security teams through data acquisition, collaborative analysis, information sharing, and automated decision support. We develop methods for automation of sophisticated network attacks and focus on their large-scale simulations and evaluation.
Testbeds for Security
We aim at building knowledge of new cyber threats and training in correct and timely responses to them. We research innovative methods for learning cutting-edge cybersecurity skills. We develop virtualized, controlled and monitored environments to provide complex simulations of cyber systems and networks.
