Implementation Attack & Artificial Intelligence Security Laboratory
Welcome to the IA&AI SecLab
IA&AI SecLab (Implementation Attack & Artificial Intelligence Security Laboratory) studies the security of real-world embedded systems with a strong focus on hardware security and cryptographic implementations. Our research centers on side-channel analysis, fault injection, and AI-assisted security analysis to understand practical attack surfaces and develop robust defense techniques.
By investigating both how security is established and how it can fail at the implementation level, we aim to build trustworthy systems grounded in physical and architectural realities.
We are actively seeking motivated graduate students and postdoctoral researchers who are interested in hardware security, cryptographic engineering, and AI-assisted security research. If you are interested in joining our lab, please feel free to contact Prof. HeeSeok Kim by email.
