Research Centers of the German UDS

The scientific exchange and collaboration between the professors and scientists at the German University of Digital Science is organized in Research Centers, which are agile and temporary organizational units that provide an inspiring framework for the dynamic research activities of the researchers. Here, professors, research associates, postdocs and PhD students work together on their research projects and dissertations. Each Research Centre has its own PhD program, known as a Research School. The joint supervision of doctoral candidates by professors ensures an open and broad perspective from the outset when working on the research topic agreed with the doctoral supervisor.

Cybersecurity

The Research Center for Cybersecurity at German UDS focuses on three primary areas: Security Awareness, Economics of Security and Advanced Security analytics. Security Awareness addresses the human element of cybersecurity. Recognizing that technology alone cannot mitigate all threats, we work on innovative intelligence services and comprehensive education and training programs tailored for various audiences, from executives to regular end users. Economics of Security examines institutions and incentives in cyberspace. At the Research Center we analyze regulations that shape the market for cyber services and products, and look at the incentives of different groups of attackers. We develop a method for measuring the cost of an attack and to measure the impact of protection. Advanced Security Analytics leverages big data, machine learning, and AI to identify, detect, and respond cyber threats. By analyzing vast amounts of data in real time, we aim to detect threat that traditional security approaches often miss, providing a proactive defense mechanism against evolving and sophisticated cyber-attacks. At the Research Center for Cybersecurity, we are dedicated to researching and developing modern and advanced security approaches through innovative research, collaboration, and education, aiming to create a secure digital world.
