'My research focuses on the design and analysis of security infrastructures. We cover the entire spectrum, from developing security anchors for embedded systems to designing security concepts for critical infrastructures. We are currently developing methods to protect user data of autonomous vehicles against cyber attacks. In order to design concepts for the future, we are dependent on views from the industry and other disciplines. In addition, it is important to me to introduce young scientists to our research at an early stage. We regularly offer seminars on our topics.'
