An article in Tech Republic looks at a new area of research in cybersecurity: automated cybersecurity system services for analysts. With a shortage in cybersecurity and more vulnerabilities in systems around the world, Tech Republic points to research by Dr. Christian Wagner, from the School of Computer Science at the University of Nottingham, Jon Garibaldi and Derek McAuley, both professors at the University of Nottingham to provide companies with ongoing online security assessments.
The support service, called Online CYber Security System (OCYSS) brings together academics from multiple disciplines to work towards a common goal of identifying system vulnerabilities. “OCYSS will employ an ever-evolving database of system vulnerabilities, which allows up-to-date threat assessment information to be compiled and forwarded to member organizations,” reports Tech Republic. The researchers are currently working towards creating a prototype.
