Universität zu Lübeck

The Institute for IT Security (ITS) at the University of Lübeck, headed by Prof. Dr. Thomas Eisenbarth, is a research institute dedicated to investigating the security of modern IT systems. Due to its specialization in security research, ITS has extensive experience in various application areas ranging from embedded systems and IoT devices to web applications and cloud computing, where issues of applied cryptography, secure execution environments, side-channel analysis, and software analysis and hardening are at the forefront.

As part of the project, ITS will work in particular on methods for detecting vulnerabilities and on their automated patching. New approaches and technologies will also be tested in order to identify and fix vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently.
