## Abstract
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Time has become an important underpinning for both security and the enabling of new applications on the internet. Recently discovered security vulnerabilities such as those in TETRA underline this. In this talk, we will dive into the world of time synchronization, why it is important and what it requires from the underlying network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
During the talk, we will focus on applications of time synchronizations in both security and in distributed systems. Both of the main time synchronization protocols NTP and PTP will be discussed. We will look at what they each have to offer, when to use what, and how they interact with the underlying network architecture.
