Security Innovation (SI) Research is a pioneering research institution affiliated with the Harry G. Harris Foundation, dedicated to advancing the frontiers of security through rigorous scientific inquiry and innovation. Founded and led by Haoxing LIN, Vice President of the Harry G. Harris Foundation and Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at the National University of Singapore, SI Research represents a convergence of academic excellence and philanthropic vision.
At SI Research, we are committed to fostering breakthrough discoveries in security research, with a particular emphasis on cryptography, theoretical computer science, and mathematics. Our mission extends beyond traditional research boundaries, we actively nurture the next generation of security innovators by identifying and supporting young, promising researchers who demonstrate exceptional potential in these critical fields.
Our research portfolio encompasses three interconnected domains that form the foundation of modern security:
Cryptography: We explore advanced cryptographic protocols, post-quantum cryptography, and novel security primitives that address emerging threats in our digital landscape.
Theoretical Computer Science: Our work spans algorithm design, computational complexity theory, and fine-grained complexity analysis, providing the mathematical foundations essential for secure systems.
Mathematics: We investigate the mathematical structures underlying security, from algebraic geometry to number theory, that enable robust cryptographic constructions.
SI Research operates at the intersection of rigorous academic research and practical innovation. We believe that transformative security solutions emerge from deep theoretical understanding combined with visionary thinking. Our support for emerging researchers reflects our commitment to building a sustainable ecosystem of security innovation that will address the challenges of tomorrow.
As an institution in its formative stages, SI Research is actively establishing partnerships, developing research programs, and building a community of scholars dedicated to advancing security science. We are committed to transparency and will continue to share updates on our progress, initiatives, and research outcomes with the broader academic and security communities.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to grow and expand our impact in security research and innovation.
