Research Positions Information & System Security 

Philips Research, Eindhoven, The Netherlands 

There are several positions, with several experience levels: MSc 
graduates, PhD graduates, PostDocs, or industrial researchers with 
equivalent experience. 

Candidates are expected to carry out innovative research in the 
area of information and system security on one of the following 
topics: 
-        Digital Rights Management Systems 
-        Secure System Architectures and Tamper Resistant 
        Hardware/Software Implementations 
-        Privacy Enhancing Technologies 
-        Identity Management 

The junior scientists are expected to perform independent 
research, contribute to the patent portfolio, participate in projects, 
and communicate their results within Philips as well as towards 
standardization bodies. External exposure (for example by means 
of scientific publications) as well as external collaborations (for 
example in with universities or in the context of European 
research projects) is highly encouraged. In addition, for the more 
senior positions we expect candidates to lead projects, to 
contribute to the group strategy and to interact with the Philips 
divisions to define research programs. 


For the more junior positions we ask a MSc or PhD in Computer 
Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or possibly in 
Physics or Mathematics. In all cases candidates should have a 
considerable security component in their education. For the more 
senior positions we ask in addition around 5 years of research 
experience in the security domain. Candidates need to have strong 
conceptual and analytical skills and need to be able to form and 
communicate their own views. They need to be able to function as 
part of a team working for customers, which requires a 
cooperative and customer-oriented attitude. 


The Information and System Security (ISS) group is a part of the 
Philips Research sector Systems & Software. The growing 
demand of security technology in systems and services makes that 
the group is expanding. The topics of the ISS group include DRM 
(Digital Rights Management), Copy Management and Protection, 
Applied Cryptography, Secure and Private Biometrics, as well as 
Privacy Enhancing Technologies. Working in the ISS group 
means finding a good balance between fundamental research, 
applied research, and support for standardization. The group 
works in very close cooperation with the Philips divisions 
Consumer Electronics, Semiconductors, Intellectual Property and 
Standards, and Medical Systems. The work results in techniques 
and systems that find their way into Philips products and 
international standards. 


Philips Research is part of Philips Electronics N.V. Besides the 
main laboratory in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, there are also 
laboratories of Philips Research in Germany, France, England, 
Belgium, China, India and the United States (collectively some 
2100 people). Our scientists work in a wide range of disciplines, 
from information technology, software, multimedia and digital 
signal processing to physics and chemistry; from mathematics to 
mechanics. We provide a challenging and stimulating 
environment, where our scientists generate options for new and 
improved products and processes by realizing concepts or making 
prototypes, in close cooperation with the Philips Product 
Divisions. About 1% of Philips' sales is spent on these corporate 
research activities. Our activities have led to the milestone of 
100,000 patents, and the publishing of many thousands of 
technical and scientific papers.
