Confidential Computing and Privacy-preserving Technologies for 6G
CONFIDENTIAL6G’s research will be based on 3 pillars: post-quantum and privacy-preserving cryptography, confidential computing, and confidential communication.
CONFIDENTIAL6G will develop tools, libraries, and blueprints to ensure confidentiality in 6G. This includes cryptographic enablers as the foundation for building advanced software components, platforms, and applications that enhance secure communication and computing. This will involve using techniques such as secure multi-party computation and federated AI/ML orchestration. The development of future systems will also rely on advanced cryptographic protocols that are resistant to quantum computing attacks, and formal security proofs to ensure the highest level of security.
GRK
This project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) as part of the GRK 2475 Cybercrime and Forensic Informatics. Cybercrime is an increasing threat due to the growing importance of information technology in society. At the same time, new law enforcement methods, such as automated data collection and analysis or surveillance programs, are emerging. However, this raises questions about protecting individuals’ fundamental rights when using forensic informatics. The GRK “Cybercrime and Forensic Informatics” unites experts in computer science and law to systematically explore the field of cybercrime investigation.
