PhD Nicolas DELCOMBEL - Cyber CNI

Nicolas DELCOMBEL

  • PhD title: Virtual Reality for Cyber Security to enhance intrusion detection, investigation and decision
  • INUIT Themes 1 and 2
  • Thesis dates: 10/2020 – 09/2023
  • Supervision: T. Duval – M.-O. Pahl
  • Context/Funding: CyberCNI Chair
  • General Goal:
    • To propose new 3D visualizations dedicated to Cybersecurity data, especially for detection of periodic weak signals
  • Scientific challenges:
    • To propose new 3D visualisation metaphors dedicated to the analyze of different kinds of periodic signals
    • To help SOC operators organizing their workstation to mix the use of classical 2D destop tools and new 3D immersive tools
  • Keywords: Immersive Analytics, Cybersecurity, Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality
  • Contributions:
    • Proposal of an abstract 3D helical metaphor for temporal data visualization, enabling anomaly detection: Cybercopter (VR4Sec article 2021)
    • Generalization of the Cybercopter metaphor in the form of a swarm of Cybercopters, enabling the correlation of weak periodic signals in the field of cybersecurity (Frontiers article 2023)
