Welcome to C&IS LAB.

Any IT system or service are always vulnerable to many security threats such as illegal circulation of sensitive personal information, intentional modification of a message, impersonation like a legal entity and insertion of false data into intercepted message, notably DDoS attacks, etc. Cryptography and information security play a crucial role in constructing highly secure and reliable service, infrastructure, and country against this threats.

Since attacking and its defensing activities can be characterized by an endless brain-battle between honest and dishonest parties, we plan to lead emerging technologies as early as possible and to take a theoretical initiative in proactive security mechanism from adversaries.

Our research starts from the theory till the practices of information security covering but not limited to secret key cryptosystem, public key cryptosystem, elliptic curve cryptography, hash function, digital signature, identification and authentication, key management system, privacy, network security, computer security, mobile network security, ad hoc network security, cyber security, DRM, software security, information assurance, DB security, system security, RFID/USN security, ubiquitous security, smartphone security, smart grid security, cloud computing security, code obfuscation, and emerging security.
