⬤ WELCOME TO CISPA 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. Focus on research We are committed to scientific excellence and cutting-edge research, and are aiming to develop CISPA into one of the leading cybersecurity research centers in the world. CISPA latest 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. Sebastian Roth PhD-Candidate FULL ARTICLE DEVELOPING FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES 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.

DISCOVER MORE Previous Next 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!
