German: PhD in Cryptographic Protocols-Bochum
German: PhD in Cryptographic Protocols-Bochum
Cryptographic Protocols for Multiparty Applications
Applications designed for groups of participants are widely deployed
(routing protocols, DRM systems, P2P networks), or will be ready for
deployment in the near future (digital conferences, collaborative
work, electronic elections). This situation fosters research interest
in distributed cryptographic protocols and their implementation
aspects.
The Horst-Görtz-Institute ( www.hgi.rub.de ) is Germany largest
academic research institute for IT security covering all aspects of
the field from mathematical cryptography to implementations. The chair
for network and data security ( www.nds.rub.de ) is currently involved
in the following research fields:
* group based cryptography (group key agreement, formal models for
group security, group signatures),
* digital content protection (DRM, broadcast encryption),
* XML and WS security (XMaiL project, browser-based cryptographic
protocols), and
* technical protections against phishing and pharming (
www.a-i3.org ).
This PhD position is intended to strengthen our research in group
based cryptography. Applicants should have excellent knowledge in
modern cryptography and good knowledge in at least one of the
following fields:
* key agreement protocols for groups,
* group signatures,
* formal models for cryptographic protocols.
In order to actively participate in the research group, applicants
should have basic knowledge and interest in Internet security, World
Wide Web technology and XML.
Qualification: university diploma in computer science, mathematics, or
electrical engineering.
Teaching load: 4 hours per week on average during the teaching term;
tutorials, seminars, or independent instruction.
Designation: Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter, BAT IIa, salary depends
on age and family status (
www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/bat/Tabellen/verguetungstabellen.html ).
Initial appointment is for three years, extension by two more years
possible. The applicants are supposed to be willing to apply for
thirdparty research grants.
Women and handicapped person are particularly invited to apply and
will be given priority in case of equal qualifications in accordance
with the relevant bylaws.
