The Institute of Networks and Security (INS) is part of the Department of Computer Science in the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences (TNF) at Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria (JKU). We strive to improve security and network connectivity of computer systems both in world-wide and in local networks through research, education, and specific project work. In addition to academic research and teaching, we firmly believe that it is our shared responsibility to improve the practical security of everyday computer systems and infrastructure that our current society is increasingly dependent upon.
