Cybersecurity of digital systems is one of the key challenges of modern society, which relies on networked information infrastructures for a wide range of social, economic and political activities.

Threats to the integrity and functionality of these systems are numerous, diverse and dynamic, as are the ways in which adversaries, whether criminal or political, can compromise or exploit them.

The Cybersecurity Research Group examines the nature and characteristics of these threats and formulates appropriate cybersecurity mindsets and actions in service to society. The group serves as a hub for studying a wide range of issues in cybersecurity and related fields, including cyberwar and cyberwarfare, national and military cyber strategy, critical infrastructure protection, information security, information warfare, digital surveillance, cybercrime and cyber espionage.

We encourage innovation in theory, concepts and methods and apply them to contemporary cybersecurity problems while promoting discussion and engagement in academic circles, businesses, the media and the broader public.
