-Candidates with borderline record and/or missing skills may be offered a Lecturer position for the start of their engagement. The monthly salary for the Lecturer position 46,000–55,000 CZK.+The aim of these PhD positions is to analyse and improve the ecosystems of products certified under security certification frameworks such as FIPS 140-2/3 and Common Criteria. 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 certificates. The tooling we develop automates the analysis of tens of thousands of certification-related documentsextracting machine-readable features where manual analysis is unattainable.

-----+==== The sec-certs project ====
  
-----+Sec-certs is a tool for data scraping and analysis of security certificates from Common Criteria and FIPS 140-2/3 frameworks. 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, CVEs, CWEs, …). The whole dataset is open an available through the web interface at [[https://seccerts.org|seccerts.org]].
