Data sharing with strong privacy against inference attacks. This project aims to develop theories and techniques for strong protection of personal information in sharing large datasets such as national health data or census records. It intends to achieve this through developing new information theoretic methods for synthesising datasets with proven high fidelity and protection against re-identification and inference attacks, where attackers try to learn probability of sensitive data.

This project aims to develop theories and techniques for strong protection of personal information in sharing large datasets such as national health data or census records. It intends to achieve this through developing new information theoretic methods for synthesising datasets with proven high fidelity and protection against re-identification and inference attacks, where attackers try to learn probability of sensitive data. The expected outcomes are algorithms for public and private sector data curators to dial up or down their data access arrangements based on privacy risks and fidelity demands linked with different data types and uses. This project intends to enable Australians to securely benefit from valuable data in decision making.Read moreRead less
Physical Layer Security for Wireless Machine-Type Communications. This project aims to provide new understanding and design guidelines to secure wireless communications among low-cost resource-constrained devices. This is achieved by advancing the fundamental theory of an emerging security paradigm named physical layer security. Expected outcomes of this project include a communication-theoretic framework to characterise the secrecy performance of communications over wireless networks, followed ....Physical Layer Security for Wireless Machine-Type Communications. This project aims to provide new understanding and design guidelines to secure wireless communications among low-cost resource-constrained devices. This is achieved by advancing the fundamental theory of an emerging security paradigm named physical layer security. Expected outcomes of this project include a communication-theoretic framework to characterise the secrecy performance of communications over wireless networks, followed by novel signal processing and transmission designs. The research outcomes should provide innovative solutions to safeguard commercial and industry Internet of Things networks, benefiting Australia's digital transformation.Read moreRead less
