Advancing the science of intelligent system defense

Three focused research areas, each addressing a fundamental question about security in the age of intelligent systems.

AI Security

Active Research

Research Question

How do we defend systems whose threat models evolve as fast as the systems themselves?

Why It Matters

AI agents and LLMs introduce attack surfaces that didn't exist before - prompt injection, behavioral manipulation, adversarial inputs. Traditional security has no framework for threats that are themselves intelligent.

Quantum Security

Foundational Research

Research Question

How do we prepare cryptographic foundations for a world where quantum computing breaks current standards?

Why It Matters

The transition to post-quantum cryptography isn't a future problem - it's a present design constraint. Systems being built today must be ready for threats that don't exist yet but inevitably will.

Real-Time Systems Security

Applied Research

Research Question

How do we guarantee trust verification at the speed intelligent systems operate?

Why It Matters

Autonomous vehicles, industrial controls, and robotics can't wait for a scan to complete. Trust must be evaluated and maintained in milliseconds, not on a schedule.
