== Writing a Thesis ==
 
 
 
=== Topic and advisor ===
 
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/faculty-of-information-technology/faculty-of-information-technology-1/about-faculty-2/departments/department-of-computer-science-2/ leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.
 
 
 
When refining topic ideas, make sure it has a clear connection with cyber security.
 
 
 
The topics or keywords below are offered by potential (co-)supervisors. The list is updated as new offers emerge.
 
 
 
===== From the TUT IT office =====
 
Infrastructure
 
* Migrating TUT Campus LAN to IPv6; Edgars Zigurs
 
* Implementing a freeware SIEM solution in TUT; Edgars Zigurs
 
* Campus WiFi quality and signal strength modeling (3D); Edgars Zigurs
 
 
 
Development
 
* electronic door signs, room calendars, etc.; Thomas Lepik
 
* VoIP solutions - softphone, integration with existing information systems; Thomas Lepik
 
* integrating last generation BMS (Building Management System); Thomas Lepik
 
* the student view of OIS (usability, security, re-design); Enn Rebane
 
 
 
===== From Arnis Paršovs, University of Tartu, arnis@ut.ee =====
 
* Topic: On-the-fly encryption for car DVR
 
Task: Implement on-the-fly encryption functionality for Prestigio car DVR (by patching publicly available firmware - possibly by hooking write calls).
 
Use of hybrid encryption is recommended, however, implementation of scrambling (e.g., XORing with a fixed key) might already be considered success.
 
Describe the threat model, how it was done and how to use it.
 
 
 
* Topic: Parallel tallying for Estonian i-voting
 
Task: Describe security risks that could be reduced if election observers would be allowed to perform vote verification and counting using their computers. Propose changes to the i-voting procedures and develop parallel tallying reference implementation and test data set. Analyse new risks introduced and propose counter measures.
 
 
 
* Topic: Perfect Secrecy for TLS
 
Task: Create an Internet Draft proposing a TLS cipher suite or extension that would ensure perfect secrecy using one-time pad. Develop a proof-of-concept patch for OpenSSL/mod_ssl and Firefox. Analyze the security and usability, describe the use cases.
 
 
 
* Topic: TLS Session Resumption and ID card Authentication
 
Task: Study how TLS session resumption is implemented in browsers. Measure and compare the performance improvement TLS session resumption provides. Measure the performance impact if the TLS client certificate authentication is performed using a smart card.
 
 
 
===== TREsPASS project =====
 
* Research project: [http://www.trespass-project.eu/ Technology-supported Risk Estimation by Predictive Assessment of Socio-technical Security]
 
The project is also suitable for PhD research, following the completion of the Master's studies.
 
Contacts: Dr Peeter Laud, Dr Jan Willemson
 
 
 
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===
 
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:
