We support students to link theory with practice, either on a subject of their own choosing or with questions and challenges the security industry is currently facing.
Last year we accompanied two papers of students at the Hochschule für Technik Rapperswil (HSR). The students tackled tricky problems around the online platform Hacking-Lab. Hacking-Lab is used at the HSR as a training platform in the fields of information security.

Congratulations both teams on their successful work!
