Congratulations to Dr Gareth Howells upon the EPSRC award of £174,412 for the project entitled ‘Security and PrIvacy foR the Internet of Things (SPIRIT).
The SPIRIT project will investigate the Proof-of Concept of employing novel secure and privacy-ensuring techniques in services set-up in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment, aiming to increase the trust of users in IoT-based systems. The proposed system will address distinct issues related to security and privacy, hence, overcoming the lack of user confidence, which inhibits utilisation of IoT technology.
