Research Groups
Faculty and students are encouraged to join one of WPI’s Cybersecurity research groups:
- The Cake Lab explores various problems related to security and applied logic, including research on privacy, network security, software engineering, software verification, security, and programming languages.
- The Vernam Group researches hardware security and the consequences of hardware vulnerabilities to the future of computing, from the cloud to the Internet of Things. Topics cover secure system software, innovations in cryptography including post-quantum cryptography and lightweight cryptography, machine learning applications of security, hardware security of FPGA and SoCs, side-channel analysis and fault attacks, physical tamper resistance, solutions for Trojan detection and anti-counterfeiting, and much more.
