Introduction
Use engineering to advance the science, policy, and application of cybersecurity to meet some of the most challenging global social challenges. Investigate a broad selection of contemporary security issues, including evaluating security threats and reactions, encryption and decryption systems, database security, and legal and ethical issues.
The underlying philosophy guiding Institute activities is based on establishing a foundational science of cybersecurity by adopting a broad, interdisciplinary approach for solving cybersecurity problems. In support of the Institute mission, an emphasis is placed upon closing the "skills gap" that exists today- there are not enough trained professionals in the field. Founded in 2014 by Darwin Deason, the Institute's mission is to advance the science, policy, and application of cybersecurity through basic problem-driven, interdisciplinary research. The Institute is committed to the goal of emerging as a world-class cybersecurity research center that innovates, develops, and delivers solutions to the nation's most challenging cybersecurity problems.
