The U.K. National Center for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT) recently released a report as part of CSIT's Belfast 2011 Cyber Summit, identifying key research priorities for protecting the future Internet.
The World Cyber Security Technology Research Summit Report highlighted developing self-learning, self-aware cybersecurity technologies, protecting smart utility grids, and enhancing the security of mobile networks as top research priorities needed to safeguard the future Internet. The four major themes of the report included the development of adaptive cybersecurity technologies, the protection of smart utility grids, the security of the mobile platform and applications, and continuing a multifaceted approach to cybersecurity research.
"Our ambition is that this strategy will help to inform global cybersecurity research and act as a driver for cybersecurity roadmap definition over the coming year," says CSIT principal investigator John McCanny.
