SBA Research is continuously building networks and contributes to numerous platforms, for example IEEE SMCS Austria, ACM SIGSAC Vienna, IFIP WG 8.4, and (ISC)2 Chapter Austria. Memberships with other platforms like CONCORDIA, COST Actions, ECSEL Austria, EC3 Europol, ECSO, or Industrie 4.0 facilitate a constant knowledge exchange with experts from academia and industry, both at home and abroad. Young academics – from bachelor to post-doc – are furthered and integrated in existing networks via summer schools (e.g., IPICS) and exchange programs (e.g., ERCIM).
These strong networks form the basis for various core activities – ranging from scientific outreach & knowledge exchange and organizing academic security conferences & security events to forming strong consortia between academia and industry to education & training – thus boosting awareness and assuming social responsibility.
