Description

The research fellow will work in the MoatE project funded by the UK Industrial Challenge Digital Security by Design via InnovateUK.

The MoatE project is a cyber-security demonstrator project for Edge Computing.

Led by Iceotope Technologies, and collaborating with Avnet, the University of Manchester plays a key role in this project providing research expertise in low-power edge systems and Arm-based architectures.


The MoatE project will develop a novel software system for Edge facilities, harnessing the new security compartmentalisation features of the Morello platform.

The software and networking stack will be hardened against cyber-attacks and implement information analysis and mechanisms to deliver improvements for the efficient operation of edge systems.

MoatE will deliver a Morello-based demonstrator for Edge-facilities, showing added value in: cyber-security; resilience; operational management; and efficiency. Evidencing reductions in CO2 emissions and added social value in enabling and securing the smart cities of the future.

The purpose of the job is to contribute technically to the project, providing research led software engineering deliverables. This is a unique opportunity to design, prototype, analyze and optimise key software components for the MoatE project. The software developed needs to take advantage of the unique cyber-security features offered by Morello. The job also involves engaging with the industrial partners as well as the Digital Security by Design Morello community.
