Leading-Edge CyberSecurity Research
With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), everyday objects such as vehicles, home appliances and power plants are increasingly being connected to the Internet and each other for an improved functionality.
The Cyber Security Research and Innovation Centre is an initiative of Holmes Institute to foster research efforts in this area and help mitigate the security and privacy impact of IoT.
About Our Organisation
Cybersecurity is a strategic priority for Australia’s national security and the country’s critical infrastructure. The Holmes Institute Cybersecurity Research and Innovation Centre allows Masters students to conduct their research assignments with the supervision of research fellows and the grants them the opportunity to become research assistants. We have a commercial focus on developing new cybersecurity products in the IoT using highly qualified research fellows, assisted by Masters level students.
Who Are We?
We combine academic integrity with commercial reality. We boast highly qualified staff in Information Systems education and Cybersecurity education, as well as prominent members of the Industry Advisory Board.
Aims & Goals
We want to fill the theoretical gap between the strategic and managerial aspects of IoT security and privacy. We’re working to protect Australian business so Australia can carry on its reputation as a privacy-respecting and safe place to do business in the era of smart things. We are also aiming to protect the Australian community and safeguard its privacy.
