Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience Group (CISaR)

Focuses on research to help support the private and public sector to prepare for and respond correctly to security incidents involving critical infrastructure in Norway. 

EHealth and System Security Group (HS2G)

The eHealth and Systems Security Group (HS2G) focuses on research in the privacy and cyber security challenges related to the fields of eHealth and welfare. The mission is to ensure that systems in our society are resilient against cyber-attacks and fulfill a set of essential security (and privacy) requirements.

Multidisciplinary Research group on Privacy and data protEcTion (MR PET)

Focuses on research related to the right to the protection of personal data. Personal data must be processed fairly for specified purposes and on the basis of the consent of the person concerned, or some other legitimate basis laid down by law (GDPR).

Networking Research Group

Focuses on communication networks and networked services, ​and how they impact the economy, society, and human factors. To address the multidisciplinary research challenges, we have established a group with expertise in system architecture and engineering, dependability and performance quantification, digital economics, and human centered design.

Norwegian Biometrics Laboratory (NBL)

Focus on biometric research covering various physiological and behavioral biometrics including recognition of face in 2D and 3D, fingerprint, finger vein, ear, signature, gait, keystroke and gesture in addition to dental biometrics and mouse dynamics.

NTNU Applied Cryptography Laboratory (NaCl)

Focuses on the theory and practice of key exchange, digital signatures, homomorphic encryption, verifiable computation, electronic voting, formal verification, symmetric cipher design and analysis, cryptography engineering, and data privacy – particularly post-quantum secure schemes.

NTNU Digital Forensics Group

Focuses on research and development of advanced computational methods to establish and prove the scientific basis of forensic investigative procedures, with the objective to support forensic examiners in their daily casework.

Information Security Management

Provide theoretical, empirical and clinical research results to modeling, measurement and management of information security. This knowledge is applicable to the community by answering questions on the site and come up with solutions to problems.
