About Lab


Cloud computing plays a key role in business requirements nowadays. On the other hand, security is one of the major anxieties of both cloud provider and cloud customer where critical services are asked/provided in cloud. The CloudSec laboratory has been established with the aim of promoting knowledge in cloud computing and network/information security. The ongoing projects in these two areas are:

  • Reliability and Survivability Analysis of Data Center Network Topologies
  • Network Function Virtualization challenges
  • Defense mechanisms against multi-step attacks
  • Vulnerability assessment and analysis
