Research Laboratory - Laboratory for Information Security

Information systems have become a pillar of our lives, both as individuals and as a community. The continued secure operation of these systems is thus paramount for the stability and well being of our global society. Indeed, the need to maintain the security of information is playing a central role in the shaping of our future.

Keeping information systems secure is a complex and multi-faceted task. It involves a range of disciplines including the mathematical foundations of computational hardness, the theory of program analysis, the design of cryptographic algorithms and protocols, operating system and network design, computing hardware design, Human interface design, as well as Sociology, Economy, and Law.
The Laboratory for Information Security, created as part of the Check Point Institute for Information Security, hosts research in all aspects of cryptography and information security.

The Lab is supervised by: Prof. Ran Canetti, Prof. Iftach Haitner and Dr. Eran Tromer.
