PhD Students in Cybersecurity (m-f-d)

Each PhD candidate shall provide a major contribution to novel concepts in one or two of 9 technical subdomains, including security assurance, smart (model-based) security testing, forensic readiness and semi-formal approaches.

The team is supported by 3 University Partners, each with their own PhD students in the joint projects.

Each PhD student is expected to get deeply involved into an analytical part (e.g. modeling, attack-tree analysis, smart fuzzing) and a practical industrial automation part, including a SCADA platform.

Transversal topics related to operating systems, network security, FPGA technology, IIoT security, security metrics, digital forensics, etc. will be jointly addressed by multiple PhD students.

The PhD students have to publish and present generic results, as part of the funding is external.
