The ISG Smart Card and Internet of Things Security Centre (SCC) was invited to deliver a presentation in the
7th INFOCOM SECURITY CONFERENCE (http://www.infocomsecurity.gr/en/),
29 – 30 March 2017 – Athens, Divani Caravel, Athens, Greece.
Professor Konstantinos Markantonakis presented the main findings of the recently completed “Secure High-Availability Avionics Wireless Network” (SHAWN) project funded by Innovate UK, in terms of the security and privacy challenges on the wireless networks in the Avionics environments. Along with the newly started three-year project, “Data to Improve the Customer Experience” (DICE), funded by EPSRC. The project, among others aims to examine new challenges in security and privacy that were not present in the exiting smart ticketing infrastructures.
The ISG was offered a stand among the conference exhibitors. It was an excellent opportunity to disseminate the ISG’s promotional material and to meet prospective students.
