Their unrivalled expertise in securing computer systems, networks and applications has earned them a stellar reputation. Now, they are set to elevate the game even further!
Cyber Security Lab in the Making
IOActive Cyber Security Lab is set to become the nucleus of innovation and research. Based near the UK’s intelligence agency GCHQ, this facility of over 5,000sq ft will be big enough to test cars, private jets and aircraft engines. Furthermore, the development of the lab comes with the intention to check how safe vehicles, planes and industrial systems are from cyber attacks.
“When you add an intelligent interface- a remote control – suddenly you have all the power for this system controlled remotely. So we want to make sure the interface from the controller to this device is secure and is not vulnerable. In the event that it was – imagine the damage something this size could do”. – Ivan Reedman, Director of Secure Engineering at IOActive.
Alongside the prospect of building a secure cyber future, the facility is also part of efforts to create a cyber park close to GHCQ in Cheltenham.
“The Cyberpark would be an area dedicated to cyber-related business and education development that is supported by surrounding health, housing and leisure facilities”. – Gloucestershire County Council.
With the IOActive Cyber Security Lab poised to open its doors to the world, we can expect to witness a new era of collaboration, discovery and innovation in the field of cyber security. Will you be making a visit to this new lab?
