RIT researcher brings together cybersecurity experts from U.S., Ireland, and Northern Ireland
Computer Engineering Professor S. Jay Yang sees collaboration as the key to combating international cybersecurity threats. That’s why the director of global outreach for RIT’s ESL Global Cybersecurity Institute is helping lead an alliance of cybersecurity researchers from the U.S., Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland.
With rapid digitalization and the post-COVID hybrid nature of work, cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly complex international threat landscape. The alliance aims to ensure that advances in cybersecurity research can be applied to improve the resilience and security of U.S. and Ireland’s digital economies. The partnership is sponsored by the National Science Foundation (U.S.), Science Foundation Ireland (Ireland), and Department for the Economy (Northern Ireland).
