We - the Helmholtz Center for Information Security (CISPA) - are a German national Big Science Institution within the Helmholtz Association. Our research agenda comprises all aspects of Information Security. With our ongoing growth, we will have the critical mass of researchers (500+) to provide a comprehensive, holistic treatment of the pressing grand Cybersecurity and Privacy research challenges that our society faces in the age of digitalization. We seek to play a prominent international role on research, transfer, and innovation by combining cutting-edge, often disruptive foundational research with innovative application-oriented research, corresponding technology transfer, and societal outreach. Thematically, we strive to cover the full spectrum from theory to empirical research. We are deeply grounded in computer science and work interdisciplinarily with researchers in adjacent fields such as medicine, law, and social sciences. We are committed to the highest international academic standards. We offer a world-class research environment that grants extensive resources to a wide range of researchers and constitutes an attractive destination for the best talents and scientists from all countries. Moreover, we strongly support undergraduate and graduate education of Cybersecurity students, and we seek to become an elite training ground for the next generation of Cybersecurity experts and scientific leaders in this field. We are located in Saarbruecken, in the greater region neighboring France, Luxemburg placing the center in an ideal location for both cross-border and local collaborations with other research institutes.
