UbiCrypt Cryptography in Ubiquitous Computing Since 2012 the DFG-funded Re- search Training Group UbiCrypt at Ruhr University Bochum investi- gates cryptographic mechanisms which form the foundation for se- curity solutions in ubiquitous com- puting. A common theme is that new cryp- tographic methods are researched for applications which are distribu- ted and heavily inhomogeneous. The research topics range from cryptographic foundations such as fully homomorphic encryption over security for medical implants to in- ternet security solutions involving new national ID cards. Overall, the continuously merging Internet of Things shall be explored and se- cured from a variety of perspec- tives. Furthermore, we are always open to enrich the group with new mem- bers from all areas related to cryp- tographic research.

Program
The over-all objective of the DFG-funded Research Training Group UbiCrypt is to provide a doc-toral education in modern IT-se-curity at a top international level.
In order to combine cutting-edge research, interdisciplinarity and preparation for industrial and aca-demic careers with a dissertation period of three years, a structured training plan is the key feature of UbiCrypt, in addition to classical doctoral research. Each disserta-tion will be supervised by two or three Principal Investigators (PIs).
One important component for achieving this goal is a cooper-ation of the doctoral students among each other. Experience has shown that it is sometimes diffi -cult for PhD students to see how other dissertation projects are rel-evant for their individual research. In order to achieve this important goal UbiCrypt’s postdocs provide additional support as interdiscipli-nary coordinators.
