Summer School on Technology and Politics in Cybersecurity

Presentation

The PhD Summer School on Technology and Politics in Cybersecurity provides a unique interdisciplinary learning opportunity for PhD students and early-stage researchers to explore the complex and changing landscape of digital security. Participants will engage in cutting-edge discussions on the intersection of technology, policy, and society, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in safeguarding cyberspace. The program is structured into two specialized tracks. 

• The first track focuses on AI and Cybersecurity, examining how AI is both a tool to strengthen defenses and a vector for new threats. Sessions will cover topics such as AI-based threat detection and adversarial attacks. 

•  The second track - which we call cyberpolitics - concerns the link between political institutions and cybersecurity, highlighting the impact of AI on international relations.

Through expert lectures, common sessions, and peer collaboration, the summer school fosters critical dialogue and equips participants to navigate the multifaceted nature of cybersecurity research.
