Research at CYSCOE brings together companies, universities and research institutes to turn open questions in cybersecurity and artificial intelligence into frameworks, tools and practical knowledge that organisations can use.
Research is coordinated through the working group Research, Innovation and Technological Development and through the European projects in which CYSCOE is a partner.
Research areas
AI governance and AI-mediated capacity
How people and organisations change when they work with AI, what authority is delegated to machines and how that capacity can be assessed with evidence.
Cyber threat intelligence
Threat analysis, correlation of data from multiple sources, risk evaluation and decision support, contributed by CYSCOE experts in ECYBRIDGE.
Cyber ranges and exercises
Training scenarios and operational validation for a federated European network of cyber ranges, developed in CYRESRANGE.
Information integrity
How AI-enabled influence operations distort perception and decisions, and which verification habits reduce the risk.
Civil–defence cooperation
Operational connectivity between civilian and defence actors during complex cyber incidents, the main lesson of ECYBRIDGE.
Security of connected industry
IoT, OT/IT convergence and resilience of smart manufacturing, topics CYSCOE members bring to industry conferences.
Research outputs
Open-access papers, tools and guides produced by CYSCOE members. All are free to read.
