Trustworthy Communications and Identities

This team investigates how to build reliable systems so people can trust mobile devices and services, without worrying about viruses, spam, identity theft, denial of service and other threats.

In particular, the team aims to create security and privacy technologies that enable desirable new functionality and thus, lead to business advantages for Nokia.

Research topics

  • On-board credentials: how to build an open platform for securely storing and using credentials by utilizing existing general-purpose secure hardware.
  • Generic authentication architecture: how to use the large-scale cellular authentication infrastructure for securing mobile and internet services.
  • Usable security: how to make security and privacy mechanisms easy to use, without impacting the level of protection.
  • Platform security: how to design and implement security architectures in the hardware and in the operating system levels to make trustworthy devices.
  • Protocol security: how to secure current and forthcoming communication protocols.
  • Trust and policy management: how to allow users to easily, effectively and implicitly set and manage their trust and security policies.
