KASTEL — Institute of Information Security and Dependability, KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany
Job Posting Job Posting
We are looking for multiple PhD students and PostDocs working on cryptographic primitives and protocols enabling privacy, accountability, and transparency in real-world application scenarios.

A solid background in provable security is required (for PhD students: successfully attended courses or a master’s thesis on the subject). Experiences with secure multi-party computation or UC-based security are a plus. For PostDocs, a track record in research on privacy-preserving protocols is expected, including publications at reputable conferences such as Crypto, Eurocrypt, ACM CCS, PETS, etc.

You will be a member of the KASTEL Security Research Labs (https://zentrum.kastel.kit.edu). Your research will be dealing with privacy-preserving cryptographic building blocks and protocols for important application scenarios and result in both theoretical security concepts (protocol designs, security models and proofs, etc.) and their efficient implementation. You will have the opportunity to regularly visit other reputable research institutions for IT security and cryptography such as the University of Luxembourg.

As the positions should be filled as soon as possible, your application will be evaluated promptly. If you are interested, please send an email including your CV and a list of publications (for PostDocs) to andy.rupp@partner.kit.edu.

Closing date for applications:

Contact: Andy Rupp (andy.rupp@partner.kit.edu, PI at KASTEL)
