Together, and in co-production with  six  Swedish industrial partners, we can offer a broad spectrum of research expertise and capabilities to develop a multifaceted and interdisciplinary cybersecurity research network and a business school that addresses the cybersecurity challenges faced by the industrial partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The universities and companies have a common ambition to strengthen the research competence and competence in cybersecurity in their organisations, as well as in Sweden as a whole, by developing and establishing an innovative, multifaceted and interdisciplinary research and education network for cybersecurity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within SIGS-CyberSec, the cybersecurity research area is structured in three research themes: &#8216;Decentralised Cybersecurity for future Networks&#8217; (T1), &#8216;Cybersecurity, AI and Automation&#8217; (T2), and &#8216;Information Security Management&#8217; (T3). These themes will be addressed by the project&#8217;s 8 industrial Ph.D. students to promote state-of-the-art, and the new training programme will train the Ph.D. students specifically in these cybersecurity areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research school is funded by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kks.se\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Swedish Knowledge Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"192\" src=\"https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac-1024x192.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-248\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:224px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac-1024x192.png 1024w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac-300x56.png 300w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac-768x144.png 768w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac-676x127.png 676w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/2a9a4e5e-706c-4775-9126-7f18a63526ac.png 1288w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-225\" style=\"width:666px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header.png 1280w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header-300x98.png 300w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header-1024x333.png 1024w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header-768x250.png 768w, https:\/\/sola.kau.se\/sigscybersec\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/880\/2024\/10\/Header-676x220.png 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swedish Industrial Graduate School on Cybersecurity SIGS-CyberSec is a Swedish industrial research school on cybersecurity, co-funded by the Swedish Knowledge Foundation (KKS).
