Trust@HsH presents paper on CLEARER research project at D.A.CH Security 2017

On September 5-6th at the D.A.CH Security 2017: Bestandsaufnahme, Konzepte, Anwendungen und Perspektiven in Munich, the Trust@HsH research group presented their paper IT-Sicherheitsanalyse durch NAC-Systeme mit SIEM-Funktionalität.

The conference tackeled many different topics in the area of IT-security. The two main areas of interest have been IT-critical infrastructures and social engineering. The collection of security relevant informations in this networks is a known problem. The next step is to correlate, assess and prioritize these informations like in classical IT-infrastructures with its new challenges. We think our security information and event management (SIEM) system developed for project CLEARER could provide a good base to do this.

Within the paper, some results regarding the architecture of the CLEARER project were presented. More precisely it was shown how to build an (open-source) SIEM system with a focus on network access systems and compliance rules.

Launch of new research project CLEARER

clearer_logo

We can proudly announce the start of our new research project “CLEARER: Erfüllung von Compliance‐Anforderungen durch automatisierte Bearbeitung von IT-Sicherheitsvorfällen”. CLEARER started on May 1st and will be completed in April 2018.

The goal of CLEARER is the development of a SIEM system with an automatic integration of compliance requirements into it. It will utilize novel network security approaches and distributive computing to meet the specific requirements of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like ease of integration, small administrative effort and cost effectiveness.

CLEARER will benefit from the experiences that we and our partners DECOIT GmbH, IT-Security@Work GmbH and macmon secure GmbH have gathered during our previously security research projects. The IF-MAP based software developed during the SIMU project will be extended and enhanced to create more sophisticated tools that allow for better automation and address the limited possibilities of SMEs in security expert knowledge and resources.

The CLEARER research project is funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy in the range of the Central Innovation Programme for SMEs (BMWi, FKZ: ZF4202902HB6).

Meet the Trust@HsH team on CeBIT 2016

alternate text

During this year’s CeBIT (March 14th to 18th), the Trust@HsH research group will present their work on the Evaluation of Security-Relevant Network (Meta)Data as one of 17 exhibitors of the joint stand of the state Lower Saxony, titled Innovationsland Niedersachsen (innovation state Lower Saxony). At the both, universities and research organizations show their research results as well as companies and founder show their development.

We will showcase our latest work in visualization of network security (see VisITMeta project) and Security Information and Event Management (see SIMU project ).

Together with a few slides about our work, we would be pleased to show you a high level demonstration of our open source IF-MAP tools.

The Trust@HsH team will be happy to welcome you in Hall 6, at booth A18!
