Christian Bungartz, MSc, receives a study award from AFCEA Bonn e.V. for his master's thesis "Topology-based Intrusion Detection for Homogeneous IoT Devices".
Since 2008, AFCEA Bonn e.V. has been awarding an annual study prize for outstanding master's thesis in the fields of applied computer science, communications engineering and automation technology with the aim of promoting the scientific qualifications of young scientists.
At this year's award ceremony, a total of six master's thesis of particularly outstanding quality were honored. Among the prizewinners is Christian Bungartz, a doctoral student in Department VI "Security and Networked Systems" in the "IT Security" working group, headed by Prof. Dr. Michael Meier.
At the Koblenz IT Conference 2023, Bungartz was awarded second place for his master's thesis "Topology-based Intrusion Detection for Homogeneous IoT Devices" and thus receives a grant of 4,000 Euro for his research work. In his thesis, Bungartz investigates the possibilities of topological data analysis in the context of anomaly detection within a set of homogeneous end devices. He was supervised by Dr. Felix Boes.
Congratulations!
