SBA Research is a research center for Information Security funded partly by the national initiative for COMET Competence Centers for Excellent Technologies. Within a network of more than 70 companies, 15 Austrian and international universities and research institutions, and many additional international research partners we jointly work on research challenges ranging from organizational to technical security to strengthen Europe’s Cybersecurity capabilities.

ARES & CD-MAKE 2019
This year´s ARES & CD-MAKE conference took place at the University of Kent in Canterbury, UK from August 26-29, 2019. On campus accommodation provided a great possibility for 230 participants from 33 countries to discuss the various aspects of security from early morning until late evening. For the third year in succession, the International IFIP Cross Domain Conference for Machine Learning & Knowledge Extraction (CD-MAKE) was co-located with ARES 2019.
21 full papers (acceptance rate: 20.75%) and 9 short papers were presented in the ARES main track. Participants were also offered a vast range of topics within 19 workshops (3 of them in the context of the EU Projects Symposium). Several social events provided good networking opportunities as well as insights into Canterbury´s surroundings and culture.

Prof. Ilias S. Kotsireas visits MatRIS research group, Sep 2 – 6, 2019
Prof. Ilias S. Kotsireas (https://www.wlu.ca/academics/faculties/faculty-of-science/faculty-profiles/ilias-s-kotsireas/index.html) from Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Canada, visited MatRIS research group for exploration of new scientific ideas in the field of applied combinatorial mathematics, strengthening the collaboration which recently resulted in the joint publication of a paper to the 8th International Conference on Algebraic Informatics (http://www.pmf.ni.ac.rs/CAI2019/index.html). Prof. Kotsireas is an expert in the areas of symbolic computation and combinatorial designs and he is interested in using algorithmic, meta-heuristic and high-performance computing techniques to study existence questions for combinatorial designs.
SBA Research as one of three expert opinions in “Kurier” and “futurezone”!
“There are technical ways to minimize the scale of such attacks, but there is no one hundred percent protection.”

Security Advisory: Ping Identity Agentless Integration Kit <1.5 Reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS)
Ping Identity Agentless Integration Kit before 1.5 is susceptible to Reflected Cross-site Scripting at the /as/authorization.oauth2 endpoint due to improper encoding of an arbitrarily submitted HTTP GET parameter name.

Ludwig Kampel @ CD-MAKE2019
Ludwig Kampel joined the International IFIP Cross Domain Conference for Machine Learning & Knowledge Extraction (CD-MAKE) 2019, a conference aiming to bridge and connect the domains of data fusion, preprocessing, mapping, knowledge representation as well as data protection, safety ans security amongst others.
On the third day of the conference Ludwig presented the paper “Knowledge Extraction for Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Test Vectors by Means of Combinatorial Coverage Measurement”, a joint work with Dimitris E. Simos and Bernhard Garn from SBA Research and D. Richard Kuhn and Raghu N. Kacker from NIST that presents a combinatorial analysis of the AES Algorithm Validation Suite based upon extracted Input Parameter Models. The presentation was well received and generated a good response from the audience.
