The Digital Security Research Group focuses on cyber security and information security in general. See the Norwegian webpage for general info about digital security.

Logo "Digital Security Research Group"

The Digital Security Research Group is contributing to national and global cyber security 1) by producing practical research outcomes for detecting and blocking cyber threats as well as for recovering from security incidents, and 2) by giving students advanced knowledge and practical skills in cyber security that will enable them to build secure ICT infrastructures and to manage information security in organisations. Adequate cyber security is necessary for making the digital transformation sustainable.

We work on multi-disciplinary projects in the areas of digital security, including:

  • Exploit Analysis and Ethical Hacking
  • Privacy and Data Protection
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM)
  • Information Security Management
  • Network Security
  • Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI)
  • AI and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity
  • Computational Trust and Subjective Logic
