“Cybersecurity allows us to operate society in line with our values, and to use information technology to achieve our collective ambitions. At the same time the level of cybersecurity at any given time is itself the result of choices we make. Through ACCSS I seek to contribute to a deepening of our understanding of cybersecurity challenges. I seek to help accelerate an exchange of knowledge between disciplines within the scientific community as well as with society at large. Ultimately, to allow us to achieve and maintain the level of cybersecurity we need.”
