IBM's Research Division is pursuing many exciting topics in the areas of network and computer security in its labs around the world.
Projects
- Cryptography and Security Research (Zurich Lab)
We are actively pursuing research in cryptography and information security, addressing many topics from the foundations to practical applications. We are also working on various aspects of secure systems design and implementation.
- Cryptography Research (T.J.Watson Lab)
Our research is firmly grounded on the theoretical foundations of the field and builds on the theory to provide robust solutions to practical and applied security problems.
- Exploratory Computer Vision Group
We work in a number of fields related to Computer Vision. In the security arena we specialize in biometrics, identifying people by their fingerprints or facial characteristics and studying the performance measures for similar systems.
- Secure Software and Services (T.J.Watson Lab)
Focus is on developing security technologies, design methodologies, best practices and standards. The goal is to significantly raise the bar on the quality of security in products and services while simultaneously easing the overhead of developing and deploying secure solutions.
- SPARCLE (Server Privacy ARrchitecture and CapabiLity Enablement)
Research aims at simplifying how people manage organizational policies across the enterprise, improving the quality of policy rules and enabling rules to be implemented via technology to ensure consistency, reliability and compliance.
