Research Group for Computer Security

Welcome to the website of the computer security group at the Institute of Computer Science at the University of Göttingen.

The research group is concerned with all aspects of applied computer security, such as the detection of attacks, the analysis of malicious code, and the discovery of vulnerabilities. A special emphasis is put on the combination of computer security and machine learning, which allows for developing intelligent security systems that adapt to changing threats.
