-This position is aimed to strengthen the work of the [[https://crocs.fi.muni.cz/|Centre for Research on Cryptography and Security (CRoCS]]) at the Faculty of Informatics. CRoCS works to improve security and privacy of real-world solutions through applied research (often in cooperation with industry) and advanced education of future security professionals. System security or network security focus are most desired, yet the abilities to work with a team of graduate students and faculty on research targeting top security/crypto conferences and to engage both undergraduate and graduate students in both educational and research exercises are most critical. The successful candidates would work the CRoCS centre, headed by prof. Vaclav (Vashek) Matyas. More info is at +<col xs="12" sm="4" lg="4">

Even such security-certified products suffer from critical vulnerabilities, and assessing which certified products are impacted by such vulnerabilities is complicated due to the large amount of unstructured certification-related data and unclear relationships between the certificatesThe tooling we develop automates the analysis of tens of thousands of certification-related documents, extracting machine-readable features where manual analysis is unattainable.

It periodically updates the database of certificates, processes the available certification PDFs and metadata and enriches them by adding new metadata (e.g. detected certificate dependencies) or cross-referencing other datasets (CPEs, CVEsCWEs…). The whole dataset is open an available through the web interface at [[https://seccerts.org|seccerts.org]].
