  • Press Release Nota De Prensa Parental Control
    Press release Nota de prensa Madrid, Spain 28 January, 2021 Parental control applications often misbehave posing privacy threats for children and even parents The researchers Álvaro Feal (IMDEA Networks Institute), Paolo Calciati (IMDEA Software Institute), Dr. Narseo Vallina-Rodríguez (IMDEA Networks Institute), Dr. Carmela Troncoso (Spring Lab EPFL), and Dr. Alessandra Gorla (IMDEA Software Institute) have won the "Prize for the research and Personal Data Protection Emilio Aced" given by the Spanish data protection agency (AEPD), for the paper "Angel or Devil? A Privacy Study of Mobile Parental Control Apps." Parental control apps are used by parents to monitor the use that their children make of their mobile phones, and to block access to certain features. These apps are highly intrusive by definition, as they can track the actions and movements of the children’s phone (and thus of the child). Therefore, the use of parental control apps can have implications on the privacy of both children and parents. The study Existing recommendations by official bodies (such as SIP4 by the European Commission) do not take privacy into consideration, benchmarking only features such as price, capabilities, or usability. To assess such privacy risks, Álvaro, Paolo, Narseo, Carmela and Alessandra relied on a combination of static and dynamic analysis to study 46 parental control apps. In their work, the researchers found that almost 75% of the apps contain data-driven third- party libraries for secondary purposes (namely advertisement, social networks, and analytic services) and that 67% of the apps share private data without user consent, including apps recommended by public bodies, such as IS4K (Internet Segura For Kids by INCIBE).

  • SCIENTIST POSITIONS at IMDEA Materials Institute
    SCIENTIST POSITIONS at IMDEA Materials Institute IMDEA Materials Institute is a public research organization founded in 2007 by Madrid’s regional government to carry out research of excellence in Material Science and Engineering by attracting talent from all over world to work in an international and multidisciplinary environment. IMDEA Materials has grown rapidly since its foundation and currently includes more than 120 researchers from 17 nationalities and has become one of the leading research centers in materials in Europe which has received the María de Maeztu seal of excellence from the Spanish government. The research activities have been focused in the areas of materials for transport and materials for energy and the Institute has state-of-the-art facilities for processing, characterization and simulation of advanced materials. More information can be found at http://www.imdea.org/materials The strategic plan of the Institute is aimed at expanding the research activities into the area of Materials for Health Care with the support of the Maria de Maeztu program. To this end, IMDEA Materials has opened two new positions of either Researchers (tenure-track) or Senior Researchers (tenured) in the following areas: - Materials and scaffolds for biomedical applications. He/she will bring expertise in the areas of cell culture, tissue growth, biocompatibility, bioactive agents for cell proliferation, etc. and is expected to take advantage of the current capabilities of the institute in advanced processing, characterization and simulation of materials to establish a multidisciplinary program.
