The Information Systems, Security, and Forensics (ISSF) laboratory is founded on a vision of transferring mathematical and statistical tools employed in the signal processing to analyze large-scale data to solve challenging problems in the areas of deepfakes, automotive cybersecurity, sensor data integrity verification, and multimedia forensics. The ISSF lab provides the resources required to train a workforce of professionals in the areas of deepfakes, automotive cybersecurity, cyber-physical system security, sensor security, information security, forensic science, and multimedia processing. This lab is equipped with a number of desktop computers and laptops, a variety of smartphones, sensors, a Ford Focus vehicle, a test-bed for in-vehicle network communication, sound recording equipment, a recording studio with controlled reverberations, microphone calibration equipment, digital video cameras, and a repository of software for acquiring in-vehicle network (IVN) traffic, tools to analyze large scale data and manipulating digital media.
