International Cybersecurity (ICS)
Research Focus
Global conflicts increasingly permeate cyberspace, with international cybersecurity therefore becoming a core building block of foreign and peace policy. The team researches how escalations in cyberspace can be avoided or conflict regulated. In doing so, different political and technical approaches are brought together in interdisciplinary work. Results and findings are then communicated to the scientific and political community, as well as the interested public. The research centres on three areas:
- Research on security-political "global governance" in cyberspace
- Analysis and knowledge transfer of new technological and political trends
- Networking with academia and industry
The research focus is funded by the German Federal Foreign Office until the end of 2026.
