ATHENE launches German-Israeli research cooperation on cyber security in the energy sector

ATHENE and the Israeli Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure of the State of Israel are launching a three-year collaborative research program in which researchers from Israeli universities will work with ATHENE researchers to develop solutions to cybersecurity problems in the energy sector. For an initial period of three years, the Israeli Ministry of Energy is funding researchers from Israeli universities to work with ATHENE researchers to lay the foundations for improving cybersecurity in the energy sector. The initial focus will be on the development of new, practical architectures for a more cyber resilient energy supply, the development of methods for detecting attacks at all levels of the energy sector, and the development of methods for defending against denial-of-service attacks against the energy sector.
