The Security Hub strategically coordinates researchers around security, with a particular focus on information and cybersecurity. The Hub is part of King’s Cybersecurity Centre an accredited Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research (ACE-CSR), which brings together KIng's expertise in cybersecurity with external stakeholders including government organisations, research-funding agencies, and the broader industrial sector.
The Hub's research themes, outlined below, highlight King's key cybersecurity strengths and their interdisciplinary links to AI, theoretical computer science, and conflict/security studies. These intertwined and complementary themes are crucial for addressing complex, evolving cybersecurity challenges. For example, AI-powered cyber intelligence is vital for national security strategy, bridging AI Cybersecurity and Strategic Cyber Security. Similarly, security for AI and autonomous systems, enabled by formal verification, connects AI Cybersecurity and Formal Cyber Security.
