The U.S. National Science Foundation has awarded Trusted CI, the NSF Cybersecurity Center of Excellence, a five-year, $6-million per-year award to run through September 2029. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) will now serve as Trusted CI’s central steward.
Trusted CI empowers trustworthy discovery and innovation funded by NSF by partnering with cyberinfrastructure (CI) operators to build and maintain effective cybersecurity programs that secure the progress of NSF-funded research. The center started in 2012 and consists of a multi-institutional, cross-functional team that addresses the complex challenges facing the NSF’s cyberinfrastructure research ecosystem.
