Our paper „Hybrid Biometric Template Protection: Resolving the Agony of Choice between Bloom Filters and Homomorphic Encryption” got accepted for publication in the IET Biometrics Journal! In the paper, we provide a comparison between Bloom Filter based approaches to protect biometric data in biometric authentication systems with approaches based on homomorphic encryption. This comparison leads us to the proposal of a combined approach that incorporates the benefits of both approaches.

Welcome to the Safety-Security-Interaction Group!
The Safety-Security-Interaction group is concerned with the development of theoretically sound technologies for maintaining the security of IT systems in the context of safety-critical systems and the Internet of Things. The main emphasis lies on developing security solutions tailored to the context-specific conditions in safety-critical systems, thereby giving special importance to studying the interaction between the security and the safety of the systems to be protected.
