What is INCS-CoE?

INCS-CoE started as an umbrella organisation, facilitating to generate individual projects, providing the value for the government-industry-academia where one organisation nor one country can accomplish the cybersecurity goals of international collaborating each other. Main pillars of the activities are: 1) Research, 2) Policy, and 3) Education and Training: “Tiger Teams” can drive creating the individual projects to address internationally pressing issues.

The outcomes of the activities will be international joint research projects and the best practices, publishing white papers and statements, and creating student competition such as Capture the Flag (CTF), exchanging students and faculty members, and generate more international degrees and certificates, funded by joint government schemes and industry contributions. Also, the outcomes are shared with Working Group meetings and International Symposia.
