Funding boost for Cyber Infrastructure in NSW

The NSW Government’s Defence Innovation Network (NSW DIN) is funding a world leading technology project for civilian and military ISR applications.
The $850,000 initiative is being funded by the NSW Government, through Investment NSW, and Defence’s Next Generation Technologies Fund (NGTF).
The DIN Director Professor Bradley Williams said the initiative exemplified the DIN’s drive to accelerate the commercialisation of new technologies by connecting NSW industry and academics within high-priority projects: “This ground-breaking project will have significant implications for both technical and economic sustainability of cyber infrastructure across Australia.”
NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer, Professor Hugh Durrant-Whyte, said, “This innovative project will leverage untrusted and partially compromised distributed systems to provide timely and robust ISR solutions across civilian and military networks without propagating risks and vulnerabilities that would normally occur.”
