Die Universität des Saarlandes bietet beim bundesweiten Girls‘ Day am 26. April Workshops für Schülerinnen ab der fünften Klasse an. Dabei lernen sie die naturwissenschaftlich-technische Forschung an der Saar-Uni kennen und erfahren, welche Studiengänge es in diesem Bereich gibt. So können sie selber Passwörter auf ihre Sicherheit testen oder ein dreidimensionales Wirkstoff-Molekül herstellen. Die Schülerinnen müssen sich für die Workshops selbst anmelden und können sich dafür vom Schulunterricht freistellen lassen.
Bug bounty programs are a popular way to find security flaws in deployed systems. We are the first to use a bounty program to find flaws in anonymization schemes, namely the anonymization scheme we designed called Diffix. We take an empirical approach to anonymization rather than the more common formal approach. The empirical approach leads to anonymization schemes with high utility, but also uncertainties about the anonymization properties. The bounty program helps build understanding and confidence in Diffix. To learn more, visit challenge.aircloak.com
Outstanding undergraduate and Masters students are invited to learn about world-class research in security and privacy, social systems, distributed systems, machine learning, programming languages, and verification. Leading researchers will engage with attendees in their areas of expertise: the curriculum will include lectures, projects, and interaction with faculty from participating institutions.
In 2018, MPI-SWS researchers authored a total of five POPL [...]
Machine learning algorithms are increasingly being used to automate decision making in several domains such as hiring, lending and crime-risk prediction. These algorithms have shown significant promise in leveraging large or “big†training datasets to achieve high prediction accuracy, sometimes surpassing even human accuracy.
