Cybersecurity

About the Research Center

We are dedicated to developing the capacity for keeping data secure and private throughout its lifetime.

The center brings together and builds upon the research of the departments of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, and the work of the Columbia Business School, among others. By way of example, Columbia start-ups such as CellRox have launched based on technology related to digital security.
