Purdue Partners Sypris on Cyber Research
Purdue University’s Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security (CERIAS) and Sypris Electronics LLC are partnering on cybersecurity research. The partnership will focus on advancing cybersecurity technologies to protect U.S. government systems and the critical infrastructure.
Sypris will also sit on the External Advisory Board for CERIAS which advises on the future direction of research in cybersecurity, digital forensics and information assurance.
“We are committed to the advancement of cyber security to help mitigate current and future threats that challenge our national security,” stated John Walsh, President of Sypris Electronics. “Sypris is currently leading an initiative to bring together best practices, research and knowledge in cyber security from industry, academia and government to increase the protection of our Country, Warfighters and critical infrastructure. As cyber threats evolve, so does the need to protect critical infrastructure to maintain operations and complete their missions while under attack. This cyber resiliency will be a focus of our ongoing research with CERIAS.”
Purdue is widely considered to be one of the leading cybersecurity research centers in the country.
“We’re excited to partner with Sypris Electronics on issues of national cyber security,” expressed Eugene H. Spafford, Executive Director of CERIAS. “Our work together will not only lead to technology advances but will help us to continue to prepare students for the ‘real world’ and the issues they’ll be tasked to address as the next generation of information security professions, researchers and policy makers. Our mission has been to build collaborative relationships with industry, government and other academic entities to advance the state of cyber security through basic and applied research while serving as a resource to the global community. We welcome this opportunity to partner with Sypris Electronics as we continue innovation at the forefront of information protection.”
