The Center for Advanced Security Research Darmstadt (CASED) was a center for IT security research and development with an interdisciplinary and cross-organizational approach. It was founded in July 2008 by TU Darmstadt, the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology (SIT) and the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. CASED promoted and coordinated cooperation between the three institutions.
CASED was part of LOEWE. LOEWE is an initiative of the government of Hesse (Ministry of Higher Education, Research and the Arts) for supporting the development of scientific and economic excellence in Hesse on a long-term basis. The government of Hesse provided funding for the infrastructure of CASED as well as for various projects of the three institutions involved.
In those funded projects, computer scientists, engineers, physicians, legal experts and economists of the three cluster partners did basic and application-oriented research.
Research and development of new security solutions for important growing areas of IT technology, such as embedded systems and service-oriented architecture, was the ultimate goal of the Center. Subsequently, they hoped to prevent substantial economic damage caused by economic espionage, manipulation, and product counterfeiting. Another aim was to make new techniques and online services run smoothly and safely for both providers and users.
CASED merged with the European Center for Security and Privacy by Design (EC SPRIDE) into the Center for Research in Security and Privacy (CRISP).




Research areas


Secure Data: Basic research and development of procedures for digital data security in a heterogeneous, dynamic and decentralized world with computers being present everywhere.
Secure Things: Basic research and development of procedures for protection of embedded systems, which often only have small resources and few means of communication.
Secure Services: Basic research and development of procedures for durable improvement of security and reliability of on-demand services.
Smart Civil Security: Basic research and development of procedures for security and reliability of new human-computer interaction as well as software- and communication concepts.
The graduate school offers a structured program for CASED PhD students.
