Dr Thanassis Giannetsos, Head of UBITECH’s Digital Security & Trusted Computing Research Group, participated at the Dagstuhl Seminar 22042 on Privacy Protection of Automated and Self-Driving Vehicles, held on January 23-28, 2022, and talked about the security, privacy and trustworthiness key properties that need to be considered as we are moving towards the realization of the 5G C-V2X technology. In this context, converging all these properties by assessing dynamic trust relationships and defining a trust model and trust reasoning framework is of paramount importance; based on which involved entities can establish trust for cooperatively executing safety-critical functions.

UBITECH is happy to announce that our Head of Digital Security and Trusted Computing Research Group, Dr Thanassis Giannetsos, co-chairs the 3rd Workshop on Cyber-Security Arms Race (CYSARM) at a prestigious venue as the ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS, South Korea, Hybrid Event), on November 19th, 2021. Although CYSARM is at the early phases (this year marks the third edition of this workshop), the workshop is already fostering collaboration among researchers and practitioners to discuss the various facets and trade-offs of cyber-security. Being the first workshop of its kind, CYSARM benefits the cyber-security community by addressing novel (and often controversial) topics in cyber-security, such as trade-offs and double-edged sword techniques.
