Computer Security Research
Rutgers has a number of faculty members with primary and secondary interests in computer security research. Computer security research addresses the design and analysis of systems, architectures, protocols, and primitives that provide properties such as reliability, confidentiality, and accountability even in the face of possible attackers. Our research covers a spectrum of topics both practical and theoretical, including analysis and prevention of malware, applied cryptography, and data privacy. Below are pointers to individual faculty members, with summaries of their research interests; please refer to their web pages for more detailed infomation.
