Frontier research in Cybersecurity, Trustworthy AI and Data Privacy

The group interest and its contribution to the socioeconomic environment is centered in the creation of technologies that make compatible three objectives:

  • security for companies, governments and individuals in the information society
  • privacy of the individuals who are users or passive subjects of the information society
  • utility of the underlying informatics systems
