Funded studentship for an EU or UK student in Privacy Preserving Continuous Authentication. Supervised Dr Steven Murdoch in the Information Security Group at University College London, in collaboration with VASCO Data Security.

Authentication technology plays a critical role in securing access to online services, such as banking, email and social networking. Session authentication schemes establish the identity of the user only at the beginning of the session so are vulnerable to attacks which tamper with communications after the authenticated session has been established. Transaction authentication schemes defend against such attacks by performing an additional authentication step at critical parts of the session, but are unpopular with users due to repeated authentication. Continuous authentication schemes, in contrast, verify user identity and intent throughout the session. So far, such schemes have had limited use in practice due to two primary weaknesses of existing approaches: privacy concerns and risk of false positives/false negatives.

This project aims to address these limitations by designing and evaluating new approaches for continuous authentication, based on a solid theoretical underpinning so as to give a high degree of confidence that the resulting decisions match expectations and requirements. Furthermore the project will focus on ways to preserve user privacy by processing behavioural measurements on the user’s computer such that sensitive information is not sent to the online service. The evaluation to be performed will consider the false-positive/false-negative rates, privacy impact, user acceptance and costs of deployment and operation.

The successful applicant will have their fees paid in full at the home/EU rate at UCL and receive a tax-free stipend at standard EPSRC rates. The project is to start in January 2017.

Please note that due to the funding provider of this project we are unable to offer this studentship to applicants who are categorised as overseas fee status.

Closing date for applications: 22 August 2016

Contact: Submit applications online using the PRiSM (the UCL application system). Contact Dr Steven Murdoch (s.murdoch (at) ucl.ac.uk) for queries about the position

Main research topics are clusterered in two strategic areas: digital identity (including smart cards and NFC, secure execution environments, cryptographic signatures and revocation protocols, scalable communication between provers and verifiers on a global scale, user interaction, etc.) and secure code (formal modeling and verification, code generation, source code annotations, compiler and runtime based verification, virtualization, hardware support for secure execution, etc.). Previous experience in either (or even both) of these areas is not strictly required, but helpful.

INS (together with the research center on user-friendly secure mobile environments) currently hosts 14 staff members and supervises a number of external PhD and Master\'s students. Applicants are expected to integrate with the team and co-operate on research projects, but are free to develop their own research focus. Teaching duties currently involve introductory low-level systems programming and networking with the option to offer advanced courses on specific research areas. Although some courses are primarily tought in German, exceptions for teaching in English are possible.

The Austrian University collective contract currently grants €3.546,00 per month (with 2 extra payments amounting to 14 monthly payments per year) before taxes. Organizational support for relocation is available. Interested applicants should send their resume and relevant proofs of qualification via email to office (at) ins.jku.at until 31. July 2016 with decisions expected within the first two weeks of August. Funding is open from 1. September, but later starting dates (until November) are possible.

The research will be conducted under the supervision of Prof P Y A Ryan, head of the APSIA (Applied Security and Information Assurance) research group, http://wwwde.uni.lu/snt/research/apsia.

APSIA specializes in the mathematical foundations of information assurance: the mathematical modelling and analysis of information flows, the design and analysis of cryptographic primitives and protocols (both classical and quantum), secure verifiable voting systems, and anonymous marking systems and game-theoretic analysis of non-interference and coercion-resistance. The group has expertise in both the symbolic (formal methods) and the computational (“provable security”) styles of analysis and is investigating the links and synergies between them. The group has also established itself as a leading centre for the socio-technical aspects of security.

The topic lies both in Authenticated Key Exchange (AKE) and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). Currently, complexity-theoretic definitions of security for AKEs are abundant but their relations are poorly understood, and the advent of QKD – in which both complexity theoretic and quantum mechanisms are intertwined - is further complicating matters. The research challenge is twofold: 1) to aid in finding fundamental definitions of security for AKE and 2) to develop a rigorous framework for reasoning about the composition of classical and quantum mechanisms, and in particular to examine to what extent definitions for AKE can be adapted to the QKD case.
