Top-Level Research @ SBA Research

SBA Research is the largest research center in Austria which exclusively addresses information security. SBA Research cooperates with the best national higher education institutions and corporations as well as research institutions all over the world and has established itself as an innovative and reliable scientific partner. The experts of SBA Research are regularly publishing articles in top journals and conferences like ACM CCS, IEEE S&P, Usenix Security, and NDSS (current publications at SBA Research).
