TECHNOLOGICAL FOCUSES
Cybersecurity
Enabling technologies essential for the development of a successful digital economy. It encompasses technologies to ensure complete data protection, secure communications and protect digital transactions. They are constantly evolving technologies, in response to constant technological development and emerging threats. Cybersecurity technologies are transversal to the other enabling technologies, becoming more relevant in Life Sciences technologies (e.g. for the protection of medical data, or the protection of TEIC infrastructures in charge of biological processes) and Advanced Manufacturing technologies (e.g. for the protection and proper functioning of industrial infrastructures and processes, as well as industrial property).
SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES AND DATA PROTECTION
They are used to protect an organization’s or individual’s information from unauthorized access or cyber-attacks.
These technologies include physical security measures, such as surveillance cameras and high-security locks, as well as logical security measures, such as strong passwords and data encryption.
SECURITY AUTOMATION AND VULNERABILITY DETECTION
Security automation and vulnerability detection are techniques used to improve the security of a computer system. These are complementary techniques used to improve the security of a system.
Automation allows security tasks to be performed more efficiently and quickly, while vulnerability detection allows security issues to be identified and corrected before they are exploited by attackers.
