Research Group Info:
Information Assurance (IA) is very closely related to information security and the terms are sometimes used interchangeably. However, IA’s broader connotation also includes reliability and due emphasis on strategic risk management along with necessary tools and techniques. In addition to defending against malicious hackers and viruses, IA includes other corporate governance issues such as privacy, compliance, audits, business continuity and disaster recovery. Therefore, IA is best thought of as a superset of information security. The group is envisioned to support a broad spectrum of activities aimed at developing a science and technology base to enhance information assurance and networked information systems trustworthiness - system and network security, reliability and assurance.
Research Areas:
- Information Security including topics such as cryptographic tools and techniques; cryptanalysis, public key infrastructure, protocols for secure exchange of information over networks and protection of IPRs
- Error Control Coding, Fault Tolerant and Trusted Computing for reliability and assurance
- Secure Software Development
