We are guests at DAISEC . The European Digital Innovation Hub for AI and Cybersecurity (DAISEC) supports companies and the public sector in Lower Saxony in the application and development of AI technologies and cybersecurity measures .
Address: Room 3703-027, Institute for Systems Engineering / FG System and Computer Architecture, Appelstr. 4, 30167 Hannover
Jacques Suray is a research associate at the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Hanover and conducts research in the field of empirical information security in the area of usable security and privacy. As part of DAISEC, he acts as a cyber security expert and advises companies on current IT security challenges.
In his presentation, Mr. Suray will provide an insight into the challenges for SMEs posed by Large Language Model (LLM)-based phishing attacks and LLM jailbreaks. He will also explain how SMEs can defend themselves against the increasing number of phishing attacks.
Karolin Varner is the initiator of the Rosenpass project, head of the associated organization Rosenpass e.V., and an employee at the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy. In 2024, she ventured into academic research and is now investigating how communication on the internet can be secured in the long term. She only develops new types of ciphers and researches the application of computer-aided math proof methods for cryptography. She is also particularly interested in how such methods can be rapidly put into practical use in industry.
As a locally based translational research institution, Rosenpass e.V. is also happy to directly support local companies in the migration to technologies that enable security against attacks by quantum computers.
In her presentation, Ms. Varner explains the threat that future quantum computers pose to the Internet and why it is far too late to use post-quantum secure cryptography until quantum computers become a reality. She gives a short report on the status of the migration to PQ-secure procedures and also discusses legal requirements that prescribe the use of post-quantum cryptography. Finally, she reports on how her freely available Rosenpass project can be used to secure corporate networks and other industrial applications against quantum attacks.
