The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) cited our work on post-quantum (PQ) security for V2V, presented at the Third PQC Standardization Conference in June 2021, as a factor in their choices for PQ digital signature algorithms to be standardized. The full NIST report is available here.
Our $650K NSF ATE grant for Improving and Modernizing Training and Education for Machining Workforce is awarded! It is collaboration among two RIT colleges and Monroe Community College.
Geoff accepted an internship offer from Modern Hire to join them in Summer 2022 as a Data Science Intern.
Our paper, "Vehicle-to-Nothing? Securing C-V2X Against Protocol-Aware DoS Attacks," was accepted to appear in the IEEE INFOCOM 2022 conference. Congratulations Geoff!
Geoff Twardokus is now a PhD student in WISP lab after successfully defending his Master's thesis.
Our 3rd US patent application "A Method for Exploiting Preamble Waveforms to Support Device and Network Functionalities in Wireless Systems" was granted by USPTO.
Two papers, one on connected vehicles security and one on preamble embedding in MIMO, accepted to appear in ACM WiSec'21 conference (congrats to Sid!) and IEEE TMC, respectively.
Two papers on connected vehicles security accepted to appear in IEEE ICC'21 and IEEE CNERT'21 workshop (in conjucation with IEEE INFOCOM). Congratulations to Geoff!
