GENF, 17. November 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SGS und die Technische Universität Graz (TU Graz) geben die Eröffnung von Lamarr Security Research bekannt, einem gemeinnützigen Forschungszentrum, das sich auf Informationssicherheit spezialisiert und Vertrauen in digitale Systeme und Produkte schaffen soll. Die neue Forschungsumgebung steht Partner-Sponsoren offen, die zusammenzuarbeiten und sich für mehr Sicherheit in der Welt einsetzen möchten.

Cybersicherheit ist eine der größten Herausforderungen für unsere Informationsgesellschaft, und es ist dringend erforderlich, den Aufbau, die Zusammensetzung und die Analyse der Systeme grundlegend zu überdenken. Um für Vertrauen zu sorgen und eine Welt zu schaffen, in der Datensicherheit und Datenschutz selbstverständlich sind, muss offene Forschung an neuartigen Technologien betrieben werden. Das gemeinnützige Lamarr Security Research ist das neue Herzstück des internationalen „Cybersecurity Campus Graz" , der 2019 von SGS und der TU Graz eröffnet wurde. Die Forschungsergebnisse werden der Öffentlichkeit zur Verfügung stehen und der Gesellschaft großen Nutzen bringen.

Forschung

Stefan Mangard, Professor für sichere Systeme an der TU Graz und Mitglied der Zentrumsleitung: „Wir werden von der Transistorebene bis hin zu komplexen Cloud-Anwendungen daran arbeiten, Sicherheit und Datenschutz in Systemen effizienter, benutzerfreundlicher und leichter überprüfbar zu machen. Auf diese Weise schaffen wir nachhaltiges Vertrauen in die Lösungen. SGS stellt die Grundfinanzierung bereit, und wir suchen jetzt nach weiteren gleichgesinnten Partner-Sponsoren, die ebenfalls mitmachen möchten." Zu den Vorteilen für die Partner zählen der frühzeitige Zugang zu Forschungsergebnissen und moderne Möglichkeiten zur Prüfung der Cybersicherheit.

Sicherheit als Element für Vertrauen und Zusammenarbeit

Martin Schaffer, Globaler Leiter für Cybersecurity-Services bei SGS und Mitglied der Zentrumsleitung: „Unsere Aufgabe bei SGS ist es, Vertrauen zwischen den Interessenvertretern herzustellen. In der digital vernetzten Welt ist das nicht so einfach, da wir es mit kreativen Hackern zu tun haben, die versuchen, finanzielle Vorteile zu erzielen, in die Privatsphäre anderer einzugreifen oder sogar das Leben von Menschen in Gefahr zu bringen. Davon sind alle betroffen, und wir können das Problem nicht allein angehen. Wir müssen alle gemeinsam an einer Veränderung arbeiten. Mit der TU Graz haben wir einen starken Partner gefunden, der das selbe Ziel hat, und gemeinsam ein Forschungsumfeld geschaffen, das auch weiteren Partnern offen steht."

Im Sinne von Hedy Lamarr[1]

Lamarr Security Research wurde nach der in Österreich geborenen Hollywood-Schauspielerin Hedy Lamarr benannt, die mit ihrem patentierten Frequenzsprungverfahren, das bis heute in Bluetooth und WLAN verwendet wird, eine der Pionierinnen bei der Erfindung sicherer Systeme war. Im Sinne von Hedy Lamarr suchen SGS und die TU Graz nach neuen und innovativen Ansätzen, die die Welt sicherer machen sollen.
