About
USC/ISI's STEEL lab was founded in 2012 under supervision of
Dr Jelena Mirkovic. Its members perform cutting-edge research in two directions:
- Designing novel defenses against cybersecurity threats.
We currently work on:
- Safe live-malware experimentation
- Detecting and engaging anti-virtualization malware
- Flash-crowd DDoS attacks
- Privacy-safe data collection and sharing
- Story-based authentication
- Improving use of network testbeds and clouds for distributed applications and experimentation. We currently work on:
- Realistic traffic generation
- Optimal application allocation on multiple public clouds
- Study on network testbed usage
- Improving testbed resource allocation
