Center for Cyber and Information Security (CCIS)
Center for Cyber and Information Security at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU CCIS) is a national center for research, education, testing, training and competence development within the area of cyber and information security at NTNU Gjøvik and NTNU Trondheim. NTNU CCIS is a public-private, civil-military and international partnership with more than 80 national and international partners. At present, we have 130 available researchers. Our researchers also take part in the teaching of around 1000 NTNU students within these science areas.
NTNU CCIS will
- increase Norway's cyber security capacity to meet our long-term security challenges
- develop cyber security competence in Norwegian agencies, companies, and academia
- be a professional support for our government in international discussions and commitments
by bridging the information and cyber security knowledge gap in the society.
The center is supported by the Ministry of Health and Care Services and is hosted and administrated by NTNUs Department of Information Security and Communication Technology (IIK).
NTNU CCIS is member of the European Cyber Security Organization (ECSO).
