The CIC-NRC Cybersecurity Collaboration Consortium is home to researchers from the University of New Brunswick's Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity (UNB-CIC) and the National Research Council of Canada (NRC). We make discoveries and advances in cybersecurity while providing training opportunities for graduate students and early career researchers.
This innovative hub advances cybersecurity research with a focus on Internet of Things (IoT) security, critical infrastructure protection, and security of Canadian points of entry. While cyber threats are growing in sophistication and magnitude, this centre positions Canada as a global cybersecurity leader by bringing together academia, industry and government partners.
