Machine-translated · View original
A lab that supports a more trustworthy and secure information society through cryptographic theory.
AboutAbout the lab
Toward a more trustworthy and secure information society.
Prof. Iwata's research group studies information security, with a focus on cryptography.
Information security is a foundational technology that underpins the safety of information and communications, and cryptography forms its basis.
Through research such as security analysis of ciphers and cryptanalysis, the lab aims to contribute to the development of a more trustworthy, secure, and prosperous information society.
Cryptographic technology is used in a wide range of fields, from the Internet to automobiles and space development.
