Security in Invasive Computing Systems (C05)

• Subject Area: Security and Dependability, Operating-, Communication- and Distributed Systems
• Term: from 2014 to 2022
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 146371743

We explore the security aspects of invasive computing and resource-aware programming, ensuring confidentiality, integrity and availability in the presence of untrustworthy programs. The scientific objective is to embed information flow and integrity protection into the invasive computing paradigm through all architectural design layers. Security has a cost and no perfect security exists. Investigated are which properties of an invasive platform benefit and which reduce security.
