Project description DEENESFRITPL The next generation of security science In today’s rapidly evolving security landscape, traditional approaches to research and training are struggling to keep pace. There is a need for a more systematic and interdisciplinary effort. The EU-funded ESSENTIAL project aims to address the critical problems plaguing security science. ESSENTIAL seeks to combat the ad hoc nature of security research and the mounting complexity of security environments. By training interdisciplinary experts and professionals, the project aims to enhance societal resilience and security. Tackling 15 research topics, from security perception to data privacy, ESSENTIAL aims to revolutionise our understanding of threats and develop effective countermeasures. This programme offers participants a unique combination of theoretical knowledge, practical expertise, real-world exposure and strong academic guidance. Show the project objective Hide the project objective Objective Though security is a field of study capable of diverse applications indaily life, security science is a young discipline requiring largerinter-disciplinary effort. ESSENTIAL seeks to develop security science byaddressing two of its main problems: the ad-hoc approach to securityresearch and the growing complexity of the security environment. To do so,ESSENTIAL has set itself two main goals: a) to train inter-disciplinarysecurity experts and professionals, to tackle security threats in asystematic manner and b) to increase societal resilience and security byaddressing in an interdisciplinary manner 15 research topics, eachassociated with long-standing problems in the field of security scienceranging from modeling security perception and democratizing intelligenceto improving security and privacy in data ecosystems.ESSENTIAL will be the first programme of its kind that aims to jointlyeducate the next generation of interdisciplinary experts in securityscience, by uniquely exposing the 15 ESRs to: (1) theoretical knowledgeand practical expertise in such areas as: (a) the policing and regulationof information-security technology, and (b) the implementation of policiesand legal standards within computing and communication systems; (2)real-world environments in law enforcement, intelligence and industry; (3)strong academic guidance offered by highly qualified supervisors andmentors; (4) high tech research infrastructures; and (5) a diversity ofinterdisciplinary research events, such as workshops, conferences,summer/winter schools.The ESSENTIAL consortium is built upon long-lasting cooperation relationsamong leading organizations coming from academia, international andnational stakeholders and the private sector, many of whom have over 25years of experience in contributing directly to national, European and UNtechnology-related policy making.
