Research
Clemson has been an active force in cybersecurity for over a decade now and boasts a multidisciplinary look at the subject with over fifteen faculty in eight departments and Clemson Computing and Information Technology (CCIT) contributing to research. Clemson receives funding from various sources including military, government, and private ones, along with engaging in joint research with other institutions. This is evident from beyond just the sources, as our faculty has hundreds of publications that we can point to across the spectrum of cybersecurity.
And given the increasing presence of technology into almost all aspects of our lives, this broad approach is especially important. The long reach of Clemson’s research can be seen through a list of some of our research areas:
- Usable privacy and Security (Caine and Knijnenburg)
- Online freedom of expression (Brooks and Caine)
- Test-beds for simulated attacks (Wang)
- Smart Grid Penetration Testing (Brooks and Venayagamoorthy)
- Connected Vehicle Security (Pisu Martin, Brooks, Hu, Wang)
- Cloud Security (Hu and Gao)
- Side-Channel Attacks (Brooks)
- Information Security and Trust (Sun and Thatcher)
