The CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security is a German national Big Science Institution within the Helmholtz Association. Our research encompasses all aspects of Information Security.
Installing a content security policy (CSP) on websites could be a real game-changer in terms of web security. It could - because there are still too many problems with it. Often, sensible and effective use of the security mechanism already fails because website developers make mistakes when configuring it. In a qualitative study, CISPA researchers Sebastian Roth and Lea Gröber have for the first time shed light on exactly where the pitfalls for developers lie. They presented their paper "12 Angry Developers - A Qualitative Study on Developers' Struggles with CSP" at the renowned security conference CCS.
Cybersecurity is a young and fast-evolving area. As a Helmholtz Center for Information Security, CISPA is dedicated to cutting-edge foundational research combined with innovative application-oriented research in the areas of cybersecurity and privacy.
We are committed to the highest international academic standards and offer a world-class research environment that grants extensive resources to a wide range of researchers and that constitutes an attractive destination for the best talents and scientists from all countries.
CISPA PODCAST TL;DR
That text was way too long, so you couldn't bother to read it? We feel you! In TL;DR, CISPA's first podcast, we talk to researchers about their work on cybersecurity and artificial intelligence once a month and try to ask them exactly the same questions that you are asking yourself.
People from 35 nations work at CISPA. That's why you'll find conversations in both German and English in this feed.
Have fun listening!

PAST EVENTS
Recruitment of highly talented students and young researchers in the fields of cybersecurity and privacy is a core element of CISPA's development and growth strategy. Finding the right people is very important to us. Maybe you're one of them!
Our goal is to hire, train and accompany future researchers in all stages of their scientific careers, to help them advance as learners, from bachelor's and master's degrees to doctorates and positions as young researchers at both postdoctoral and faculty level.
No matter if you’re just starting your career or already have experience, we want to offer all of you an inspiring, international and competitive, yet cooperative and above all enjoyable working environment for your research and education. We strongly believe that, here, you will be able to develop your full potential.
