Your role in the team

  • Data forms the basis for data-driven business models and research.
  • The basis for this is the controlled, fair and self-determined exchange of data between data providers and data consumers within the framework of data spaces and data ecosystems.
  • In this context, data is processed almost exclusively by software.
  • The development of reliable, robust and secure software therefore plays an important role, especially when software is a component of critical systems and infrastructures.
  • A software failure or vulnerability to cyberattacks, for example, can have catastrophic consequences and cause damage to both satellites and digitised administrative services.
  • It is therefore important to support developers in the realisation of secure, robust and reliable software systems and architectures.
  • The Secure Software Engineering working group systematically researches methods, tools and processes for secure software development.
  • Its aim is to advance automation in the areas of threat modeling and software supply chain.
