Cyber Security has been established as a university level priority area at the University of Kent. Our Cyber Security research has had a strong focus on interdisciplinarity since 2012, when the university wide Kent Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Cyber Security (KirCCS) was established. We believe that Cyber Security challenges cannot be solved using only technological solutions, and that we need the involvement of researchers from other disciplines. A collaborative approach allows us to benefit from, and be inspired by, theories and solutions from disciplines such as psychology, physics, biology, and social sciences. Interdisciplinary collaboration has led Kent researchers to a number of major successes in external funding.Cyber Security capabilities at the University of Kent are on four main research themes: Authentication and Authorisation; Communication and Network Security; Security Testing and Verification; and Socio-technical Security. We also have capabilities on four other cross-cutting topics: applications of AI related technologies in Cyber Security; digital forensics and cybercrime; information hiding; and quantum cyber security. Our work on AI spans all four research themes, and covers diverse techniques including machine learning, data mining, information visualisation, discrete optimisation, and soft computing.In addition to conducting cutting-edge research, we aim to make KirCCS an innovation and impact creation hub in Cyber Security through activities on education (e.g., supporting the NCSC-certified MSc in Cyber Security programme at Kent), public engagement (e.g., conducting Cyber Security surveys and working with public media to inform and raise awareness of the general public about Cyber Security), serving government (e.g., helping law enforcement agencies to fight against threats such as cybercrime), helping industry (e.g., providing consultancies to and co-exploiting research results with industrial partners), and technology transfer (e.g., through patenting and university spin-offs). Cyber Security researchers at Kent have an excellent track record in all these areas.The Kent ACE-CSR will work with other ACEs-CSR to enhance the international profile of UK Cyber Security research.

网络安全已被确立为肯特大学的一个大学级优先领域。自2012年以来，我们的网络安全研究一直非常关注跨学科性，当时成立了大学范围的肯特网络安全跨学科研究中心（KirCCS）。我们认为，网络安全挑战不能仅仅依靠技术解决方案来解决，我们需要其他学科的研究人员的参与。协作方法使我们能够受益于心理学，物理学，生物学和社会科学等学科的理论和解决方案，并受到启发。跨学科的合作使肯特大学的研究人员在外部资金方面取得了许多重大成功。肯特大学的网络安全能力主要集中在四个研究主题上：身份验证和授权;通信和网络安全;安全测试和验证;以及社会技术安全。我们还拥有其他四个跨领域主题的能力：人工智能相关技术在网络安全中的应用;数字取证和网络犯罪;信息隐藏;和量子网络安全。我们在人工智能领域的工作涵盖了所有四个研究主题，并涵盖了机器学习、数据挖掘、信息可视化、离散优化和软计算等多种技术。除了开展前沿研究外，我们还旨在通过教育活动（例如，支持肯特的NCSC认证的网络安全硕士课程），公众参与（例如，进行网络安全调查，并与公共媒体合作，向公众宣传网络安全，提高公众对网络安全的认识），为政府服务（例如，帮助执法机构打击网络犯罪等威胁），帮助行业（例如，向工业伙伴提供咨询并与工业伙伴共同利用研究成果），以及技术转让（例如，通过专利和大学衍生产品）。肯特的网络安全研究人员在所有这些领域都有出色的记录。肯特的ACE-CSR将与其他ACE-CSR合作，以提高英国网络安全研究的国际形象。
