The 'Cybersecurity' acceleration PEPR

Securing the digital future with advanced cybersecurity

With cyber threats on the rise and increasing dependence on digital systems, cybersecurity is becoming a strategic issue for protecting data and infrastructure. The Cybersecurity research programme aims to structure digital security research around major challenges in order to develop sovereign, secure and competitive technologies for citizens and public and private stakeholders.

  • Acceleration national research programme
  • Programme leaders: CNRS, Inria and CEA
  • Directeurs du programme :
    • Sonia Ben Mokhtar - CNRS (Laboratoire d'InfoRmatique en Image et Systèmes d'information (LIRIS))
    • Ludovic Mé - Inria
    • Géraut Canet - CEA
  • Budget : €65m
  • Duration : 8 years (2022 to 2029)

To respond to the growing complexity of threats, the research programme draws on a wide range of scientific disciplines, including cryptography, mathematics, algorithms, embedded computing, vulnerability analysis and data science. The projects launched target concrete applications in sensitive sectors such as the
cloud, connected objects, electronic voting and embedded systems.

This programme also helps to structure a dynamic economic sector by promoting the creation of skilled jobs and the emergence of competitive national players. It strengthens collaboration between research and industry, trains a new generation of experts and raises awareness throughout society of the challenges of cybersecurity.

By supporting innovation, it contributes to France’s economic development and technological autonomy in an area that has become key to national sovereignty.
