Security experts from the Fraunhofer IGD show Visual Security Analytics

IEEE Visualization (VIS) is the world's largest and most significant conference on visualization in all variations possible, be it pure information visualization or visual analysis. As a Gold Member, Fraunhofer IGD also presented current projects this year. The security experts at Fraunhofer IGD used Visual Security Analytics to demonstrate their contribution to a secure network: with real-time visualization and analysis of global IP addresses, hacker attacks can be detected at an early stage.

In addition, Fraunhofer IGD presented the EU project CloudiFacturing. This is about the question of how sensor analysis can sustainably support an overall process. Goal: Digitization of manufacturing processes and strengthening the competitive position of German SMEs - because everyone should benefit from Industrie 4.0. Furthermore, the software tool VA4Radiomics was introduced, which recognizes and visualizes characteristic relationships in patient cohorts. Such cohorts can be used to show how the clinical picture of an individual patient relates to patients with similar symptoms and thus to draw conclusions about the best possible treatment.

At the IEEE Symposium on Visualization for Cyber Security (VizSec) accompanying the conference, the CRISP scientists presented their publication "Visual Interactive Identification of Anamolous IP Block Behavior Using Geo-IP Data". (PDF), Authors: Alex Ulmer, Marija Schufrin, David Sessler, Jörn Kohlhammer as well as the poster "Towards Bridging the Gap Between Visual Cybersecurity Analytics and Non-Experts by Means of User Experience Design" (PDF of the poster)
