Context

The modern Internet has grown into the biggest “network of networks” in the world, interconnecting billions of end users and devices. Yet security was not a concern in its early days, so some of the fundamental protocols — the Internet Protocol (IP), the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the Domain Name System (DNS) — are inherently insecure. Security requirements have changed drastically since then, but millions of Internet-connected hosts still run vulnerable configurations, and as new protocols appear, bugs and misconfigurations remain commonplace.

Subject

Authenticated Encryption for a Robust IoT

Tue, 28 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Position: Research engineer CNRS
Contract: fixed-term 9 months, gross salary 28k€/year minimum
Start date: ASAP
Location: Grenoble, Rhône-Alpes, France
Hosting institution: LIG laboratory, Université Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble Institute of Technology
Scientific advisors: Franck Rousseau @LIG/UGA, Marine Minier @LORIA/U.Lorraine, Pascal Lafourcade @LIMOS/UCA
Application deadline: 01/06/2017

Context

This project will take place in the scope of the PEPS OCAAA CHARIOT project, in the Drakkar research group at the LIG - Université Grenoble Alpes. LIMOS - Université Clermont Auvergne and LORIA - Université de Lorraine are partners in the project. The Internet of Things will succeed only if the many security issues that we witness on a daily basis are solved. The IoT poses many challenges in terms of security. Many of the “Things” are devices with very stringent constraints in terms of energy, memory and processing power, and are often deployed in harsh environments that are hard to control.

Datatweet project demonstrator in the city of Grenoble

Tue, 28 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Position: Research engineer Grenoble INP
Contract: fixed-term 6 months, gross salary 28k€/year minimum
Start date: ASAP
Location: Grenoble, Rhône-Alpes, France
Hosting institution: LIG laboratory, Université Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble Institute of Technology
Scientific advisor: Franck Rousseau @LIG/UGA
Application deadline: 01/06/2017

Context

The DataTweet project proposes to explore the idea of a ubiquitous public data service for transmitting short messages. Any user or source of the service will be able to send a short message at a very low rate to some destination address over various access networks: open 802.11 hotspots, base stations of LTE, ITS G5 car-to-infrastructure stations. The user or a device sends its message to the nearest wireless network at hand (for instance a 802.11 hotspot) which forwards it over multiple hops to the destination through the infrastructure network.
