I am happy to announce the availability of two research positions at Technische Universität Berlin. For our new project PROSEC, we are looking for two PhD students with interest and expertise in network security and machine learning.
Research area: The project is concerned with the security of IP-based communication and involves developing novel techniques for protecting services, devices and infrastructures from unknown attacks. For this purpose, proactive concepts from computer security, such as honeypots, are coupled with machine learning techniques for automatically detecting, analyzing and preventing network threats. The project has a running time of three years and is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
Requirements: The candidates should have a strong background in network security, network attacks and communication protocols, as well as good knowledge of machine learning and statistics. A university degree in computer science, mathematics or a related area is required.
The official announcement is available here (in German). Note that the deadline for applications is 1st of May. If you have any questions regrading these positions and the project, feel free to send me an email.
