RIT researchers are zeroing in on quantum photonics, the creation, control, and detection of light. Photonics has long been a specialty of the university. RIT led the team that developed the first quantum photonic wafer, which is key to the future of mass-produced quantum communication systems.

TechTarget speaks to Paloma Hamilton, fifth-year mechanical engineering student; Geoff Twardokus, electrical and computer engineering Ph.D. student; and Christopher Collison, director of RIT's AI Hub and Initiatives, about the innovative developments featured at Imagine RIT.

Nine RIT faculty members attended the 2024 Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace Principal Investigators’ Meeting Sept. 4-5, in Pittsburgh.

Researchers from the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) recently presented a cutting-edge defense mechanism against advanced wireless attacks at the prestigious IEEE International Conference on Computer Communications (INFOCOM). The paper, authored by Professor Hanif Rahbari and computing and information sciences Ph.D. student Naureen Hoque, was showcased at the top-ranked networking conference held in Vancouver in May.

RIT cybersecurity researchers are preparing connected vehicle networks for the next stage of cybersecurity—the post-quantum era. The team, in RIT’s ESL Global Cybersecurity Institute, is highlighting how current cryptographic methods are vulnerable to attacks enabled by emerging quantum computers.

RIT's researchers are improving healthcare for marginalized populations, explaining mysteries of the universe, battling anemia, and making autonomous driving systems more secure. Meet four of them.

Hanif Rahbari, an assistant professor of computing security, was awarded a National Science Foundation CAREER Award to make connected vehicles more reliable and secure against quantum attacks.

WXXI’s “Connections” program features Hanif Rahbari, assistant professor in the Department of Computing Security.

More than 1,000 openings in the Finger Lakes region for skilled machinists are projected in the coming years. Local academic researchers and industry partners are developing new training options to fill the expected gaps—integrating gaming and virtual reality to appeal to a younger generation of manufacturing professionals.

The cyber pandemic is just one of many cybersecurity issues that RIT experts are working to address in the new Global Cybersecurity Institute (GCI). Late last fall, the GCI opened the doors to its 52,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility on campus. With the institute, RIT is on its way to becoming one of the best places in the world for cybersecurity education, training, and research.

WROC-TV talks to Hanif Rahbari, assistant professor in the Department of Computing Security, and Geoffrey Twardokus, a fifth-year computing security BS/MS student, about security issues with self-driving cars.

IEEE features an RIT student research team that invented a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications system prototype.
