#Deepfakes #entlarven

Täuschend echte #KI-Fälschungen bedrohen Vertrauen in digitale Informationen. Forschende am #CISPA entwickeln Methoden, um manipulierte Bilder, Videos und Audiodateien zuverlässig zu erkennen.

Heute war ich zu Besuch beim #CISPA Helmholtz-Zentrum für Informationssicherheit im Saarland - einem weltweit führenden Forschungszentrum für #Cybersicherheit und #Datenschutz.

Angesichts zunehmender #Cyberangriffe und rasanter technologischer Entwicklungen müssen wir unsere Daten und #Privatsphäre besser schützen. #Forschung und #Politik müssen hier noch enger zusammenarbeiten.

Vielen Dank für den spannenden Austausch!

Congrats to #CISPA researcher and Saarland University professor @AndreasZeller on his IEEE Fellowship for his exceptional contributions to software analysis and development! 👏

Fellow is the top membership grade, awarded to under 0.1% of members each year.

🏅 This week, SIC celebrates its 46th #ERC Grant!

Congrats to #CISPA researcher Prof. Dr. Andreas Zeller on receiving an ERC Proof of Concept Grant by the European Research Council!

#LLMs fall short in maintaining existing systems. As a response, his team developed testing methods that explore software behavior systematically.

💶 With the new €150,000 grant, the goal is putting this approach into complex applications and improving software productivity.
