Task
The automotive industry is on the brink of a transformative shift with the rise of Ethernet in zone-based E/E architectures. This evolution not only enables innovative use cases, but also introduces new security challenges.
Software-defined networking (SDN), a cornerstone of the Software-defined Vehicle, brings new fundamental requirements, such as dynamic network reconfiguration during runtime and enhanced performance for cryptographic protocols due to increased communication load of ADAS functionalities.

- Last but not least, you publish, present as well as discuss research findings in top-tier journals and at leading conferences.
Profile
- Education: excellent Masters degree in IT Security, Computer Science, Mathematics, Communications or comparable
- Experience and Knowledge: strong background in (applied) cryptography with a particular focus on network security and cryptographic protocols, including security models and basic security proof techniques; strong knowledge in embedded systems; good software development/programming skills
- Personality and Working Practice: you are self-motivated, reliable and enthusiastic; an independent and creative way of working characterizes you and you are able to work in an international team with a diverse background
- Enthusiasm: motivation to built proof-of-concepts for theoretic results
