Networking and security

Networking and Security focuses on distributed computer applications and the underlying communication mechanisms. While the measurement and modeling of network traffic is essential to the design of new algorithms and protocols, security appears to be an emerging component of this activity through the capture and analysis of malicious behavior and the design of new countermeasures both for the distributed software applications and the communication system.

The research in the Networking and Security department focuses on two areas :

• Protocols and application-specific services in the Internet addressed by Btroup 
• Security for Computer Networks and Distributed Systems addressed by NS Team
