Cybernetica will research various cryptographic algorithms and their support in software libraries and information systems for Estonian Information System Authority. The goal of the research is to provide an overview and assessment of the current situation, search for possibilities and make future suggestions on the implementation of cryptographic algorithms.
Cybernetica was granted funding by DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) under PROVENANCE (PROofs and Verifications between governmENts ANd CitizEns) project to bring value to communication between the public and private sector by creating techniques for constructing meaningful zero-knowledge proofs. The goal is to improve government’s interactions with citizens, companies and other governments by enabling them to confidentially handle sensitive data.
Cybernetica will endorse Master’s and Doctorate students of the curricula of information technology by granting the Monika Oit Foundation fellowship.
Cybernetica will grant a Master’s Fellowship intended for excellent Master’s students of the curricula of Software Engineering, Computer Science, or Data Science at the University of Tartu Institute of Computer Science. The fellowship provides research opportunities and offers collaborations for research at Cybernetica, also a paid internship place.
Starting today, August 20, the mobile app HOIA is available for download to your phone via www.hoia.me, helping to curb the spread of the coronavirus with the help of app users. The application notifies the user if he has been in close contact with an infected person. The phones of the users of the application exchange anonymous codes, and the state, the manufacturer of the application, or the manufacturer of the phone will not know who was in close contact with whom.
“Wakamono Innovation Network 2019-2nd Nursing Digital Hackathon in Yokohama”, which had been postponed due to the spread of new coronavirus infection, was resumed with screening presentation held at Yokohama City Hall on Sunday, July 12. Fujisoft provided a secure information linkage platform using Cybernetica’s “UXP (Unified eXchange Platform)” platform, provided technical support and participated as a judge at the hackathon.
Cybernetica has been awarded a contract by the European Space Agency (ESA) to develop a tool for improving cybersecurity management through machine learning. The project, named Minerva, de-risks the machine learning approach to improve threat and vulnerability management in order to reduce the workload of cybersecurity specialists.
Cybernetica, in a multinational consortium led by Indra Sistemas (ES) with other members from Italy and France, was awarded 10,9 MEUR from the European Commission’s European Defence Industrial Development Program (EDIDP) to build the European Cyber Situational Awareness Platform (ECYSAP). The role of Cybernetica is to provide sensor integration and situational awareness visualisation to the platform intended for military use.
Estonian Air Navigation Services (EANS) and Cybernetica have signed an agreement for the continuous development and global offering of the Remote Tower system, currently developed and deployed in Estonia, with the sales perspective focused on low-traffic intensity aerodromes around the world.
Cybernetica proposed privacy-preserving decentralised COVID-19 mobile application for Estonia and is supervising the consortium on the secure implementation and developing of the mobile application to tackle the spread of COVID-19 in Estonia. The consortium is led by the Ministry of Social Affairs and in addition to Cybernetica includes Bytelogics, Fujitsu Estonia, Guardtime, Icefire, Iglu, Mobi Lab, Mooncascade, and Velvet.
