Cybersecurity at Georgia Tech

The Institute for Information Security & Privacy (IISP) at Georgia Tech connects government, industry and academia to solve the grand challenges of cybersecurity. As a coordinating body for 11 labs and centers dedicated to academic and solution-oriented applied research, the IISP leverages intellectual capital from across Georgia Tech and external partners to address vital solutions for national defense, economic continuity, and individual freedom. Our aim is to anticipate, overcome and continually resist emerging cyberthreats through expert insight, innovative breakthroughs, and cutting-edge curriculum. As a hub for national collaboration, the IISP helps government and industry partners move Georgia Tech's cyber research into deployable solutions that close the innovation gap with immediate application in the world.
