Shurok just joined us at Télécom SudParis, Institut Polytechnique de Paris to work on the second doctoral project on Cognitive and Programmable Response. Before joining us, Shurok was completing an internship at the GRETTIA laboratory, Université Gustave Eiffel. She holds a Master in Intelligent Systems and Applications at Université Gustave Eiffel, where she specialized in modeling, simulation and data analysis of intelligent systems. Her acquired skills in AI and networking will be beneficial to the project.

GRIFIN will be presented at the poster session of the French symposium on the education and research community in information systems security (RESSI, a conference supported by the CNRS research group on cybersecurity (GDR Sécurité Informatique), on May 11th. The poster was teased during a project session. The poster and presentation materials are publicly available (poster) (slides)

The GRIFIN project team is offering a fully-funded (3 years) PhD position at Télécom SudParis, Institut Polytechnique de Paris to progress on AI-based countermeasure selection, intent-based countermeasure refinement and verification. More details on the thesis project are available in the proposal.

Solayman, our Ph.D student hosted at LORIA, Université de Lorraine, had the opportunity to present his ongoing thesis work at the French-Japanese Cybersecurity Workshop that was held online, on April 20th during the WG7 session on Network Security and Measurements. Solayman talked about the taxonomy he is currently building on the data-driven evaluation of intrusion detection systems. He highlighted the lack of a clear methodology to evaluate intrusion detectors, and in particular ML/AI-based ones, beyond the usual performance of detection metrics, and the widely used datasets. His proposal aims at drafting a framework enabling a modular evaluation of intrusion detection systems with respect to the properties to be evaluated. This work is expected to be submitted for publication later in this year.

A GRIFIN poster will be presented at the French Interdisciplinary Workshop on Global Security (WISG). The workshop is held online and features a number of invited talks on cryptography, fight against terrorism and fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. On the evening of January 25th, 2022, the poster session will be held, where participants can book appointments for discussing the poster with GRIFIN’s PI, Gregory. The poster describes GRIFIN in general, and advertises the vacant internship position. Registrants can make appointments via this page.
