The Center for Advanced Security Research Darmstadt ( CASED ) was established in July 2008 as the LOEWE Center for IT security research and development with an interdisciplinary and institutsübergreifendem concept of its three carriers, the Technical University of Darmstadt, the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology and the University of Darmstadt, was founded. This CASED acts as headquarters of the three facilities that promotes cooperation and coordinated.

In the funded projects, computer scientists, engineers, physicians, lawyers and economists of the three alliance partners in basic research and applied research.

The aim of CASED is the research and development of new security solutions to the key growth areas of information technology, such as embedded systems or service-oriented architectures. This should be prevented to a corporate espionage, tampering and counterfeiting, which are responsible for significant economic losses in Germany. The second goal is achieved by new technology and Internet services providers and users can be safely and reliably.

Workspaces

  • Secure data: exploring the fundamentals and development of procedures for the security of digital data in a heterogeneous, dynamic and decentralized world of ubiquitous computer.
  • Secure Things: Exploring the foundations and development of methods for the protection of embedded systems, which usually only have very limited resources and different ways to communicate.
  • Secure Services: Exploring the foundations and development of procedures for the safety and reliability of on-demand services composed over their entire lifetime.
  • Smart Civil Security: Exploring the foundations and development of procedures for the security and reliability of new human-computer interactions as well as new software and communication concepts.
  • The Graduate School offers a structured doctoral program for CASED Fellows.

Training

Since the summer semester of 2010, the Darmstadt University of Technology offers the Master's Program IT Security offering under which almost all the principal investigator of CASED lectures and internships. The master can also be taken in combination with the undergraduate computer science master's degree program.

The University of Darmstadt offers since 2009, specializing in the "IT Security " for their students of the Master program in computer science at. Here are instrumental in two of CASED Principal Investigator.

Together eV with the Competence Center for Applied Security Technology CAST and the International Institute in Lifelong Learning ( I3L3 ) at TU Darmstadt CASED offers professionals the opportunity to earn a certificate in IT security. The certificate includes the successful participation in events IT security of the computer science department at the TU Darmstadt and the visit of CAST workshops.
