Data protection is an important topic for all of us, regardless of whether we are startups, SMEs or corporations - and it is very complex. Our data protection law experts from Fraunhofer SIT will talk online about many aspects of data protection during a joint lunch break.
Information security is becoming more and more important: in order to protect electronic business processes, companies are increasingly looking for qualified employees who can prove that they are equal to the complex challenges of IT security. The TeleTrusT Information Security Professional (T.I.S.P.) is the only effective proof of this kind in Europe. ATHENE member Fraunhofer SIT offers seminars to prepare for the exam.
We cordially invite you to the closing event of the accelerator SpeedUpSecure live at Fraunhofer SIT and via livestream. More than ten selected cybersecurity startups will pitch their business idea in front of the top-class jury and the audience.
The bi-annual conferences of the Collaborative Research Center CROSSING have established a tradition of providing a great opportunity for experts, researchers, and practitioners to delve into the cutting-edge developments and future possibilities in the intersection of the research areas Security, Crypto, Quantum Computing, and AI. In CROSSING, many of our scientists from TU Darmstadt involved in ATHENE research are conducting research. Prof. Marc Fischlin, deputy representative on the ATHENE board and coordinator of the ATHENE research area Cryptography, is the spokesperson of CROSSING.
Konrad Rieck from TU Berlin is a guest at our ATHENE Distinguished Lecture Series. He talks in his lecture "When Papers Choose their Reviewers: Adversarial Machine Learning in Conference Management Systems" about the security of review processes of scientific papers and this automation and presents a new attack where a particular paper is modified to select its own reviewers.
The virtual event series offers cybersecurity researchers support in clarifying legal issues that arise in the course of their research - for example, when identifying vulnerabilities or simulating cyberattacks. Today's presentation focuses on "Alternatives to "Hackback"? State cybersecurity attacks from the perspective of international law." Donika Mirdita, ATHENE | TU Darmstadt, will introduce the topic.
Unfortunately, you can't make friends with the GDPR - most people know that - and certified data protection officer Steffen Lüning will tell you why. However, he also explains how you can win over the GDPR at least for a platonic friendship.
Matthias Wählisch from TU Dresden is a guest at our ATHENE Distinguished Lecture Series. He will talk about: "Impactful Measurement Research: Lessons from Analyzing IP Prefix Hijacks, DDoS, and Emerging Transport Protocols".
