ATHENE and GSI cooperate on high-performance AI infrastructure for secure data analysis

04/03/2025

ATHENE and the GSI Helmholtzzenturm für Schwerionenforschung have initiated a strategic cooperation in the field of scientific data processing and cyber security. The common goal is to establish a real-world laboratory with high-performance AI computers in the Green IT Cube, one of the most energy-efficient data centres in the world.

As part of this collaboration, ATHENE is installing a high-performance AI cluster consisting of twelve nodes, each with eight high-end GPUs, which is designed to analyse large volumes of data using complex AI models. This advanced infrastructure enables researchers to analyse even highly sensitive data or simulate AI attacks without third parties gaining access to the information. The collaboration leverages the synergies between ATHENE's expertise in cybersecurity research and GSI's long-standing experience with the GSI/FAIR Digital Open Lab, a real-world laboratory for energy-efficient high-performance computing.
