I am doing research in the field of behavioral authentication in our Secure Identity Lab. Specifically, I am interested in the following sub topics

• Real-World Deployments of Behavioral Authentication Systems
• Modelling and Standardization of Behavioral Authentication Systems
• Benchmarking of Algorithms used in Behavioral Authentication Systems

Further topics of research of our research group can be found at https://sec.hpi.de.

HPI Identity Provider

We are providing the HPI OpenID Connect Identity Provider Service that you can use to easily integrate user authentication into your application based on existing HPI credentials.

If you have any questions concerning the provider, please do not hesistate to ask :)

Courses

Usually, each semester either a Bachelor's (summer semester) or Master's seminar (winter semester) is offered related to behavioral authentication. For the Bachelor's course there is a higher focus on respective IT architectures and its engineering.

In contrast, the Master's course focus on more on research topics such as large-scale data collections, data science & engineering, or machine learning.

More information regarding the current Master seminar and its content is available here.
