MIT to launch new Office of Research Computing and Data
Professor Peter Fisher will lead effort to grow and enhance computing infrastructure and services for MIT’s research community.
Lincoln Laboratory honored for transfer of security-enhancing technologies
FLC Excellence in Technology Transfer Award recognizes two innovations that have transitioned to commercial use.
Keylime security software is deployed to IBM cloud
Originally developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, the technology allows organizations to ensure the security of sensitive data stored in the cloud.
Lincoln Laboratory earns a 2020 Stratus Award for Cloud Computing
An innovative approach protects closed-source Windows applications against cyber attacks by automatically and transparently re-randomizing sensitive internal data.
Communities in the cloud
PhD student Steven Gonzalez studies cloud computing with the eye of an anthropologist.
Computing at full capacity
MIT spinout Jisto helps companies optimize utilization with real-time deployment, monitoring, and analytics.
Diagnosing “broken" buildings to make them greener
Startup’s software detects inefficient equipment in facilities — saving energy, time, and money.
Detecting program-tampering in the cloud
A new version of ‘zero-knowledge proofs’ allows cloud customers to verify the proper execution of their software with a single packet of data.
Protecting data in the cloud
A new hardware design makes data encryption more secure by disguising cloud servers’ memory-access patterns.
Securing the cloud
A new algorithm solves a major problem with homomorphic encryption, which would let Web servers process data without decrypting it.
