"Secure Energy Systems (SES)" is a working group within Institute for Automation and Applied Informatics (IAI). SES covers a broad area in Energy Systems and Smart Grids (SG) including cybersecurity, information security, cryptography, machine learning, communication structure, etc.
Our goal is to design and implement flexible Public-key Cryptography (PKC) algorithms for Distributed Energy Systems (DES) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) within Smart Grids (SG). These energy systems involve power-constrained infrastructure and entities (e.g., sensors - WSN) that required lightweight cryptosystems. Thus, our targeted topic for this position is applied cryptography, design, and implementation of provable secure lightweight public-key cryptosystems.
