The cybersecurity and secure systems center-of-excellence direction reflects ESE’s strengths in hardware security, OT-security, communication systems, critical infrastructure protection, trusted electronics, and cyber-physical systems. This initiative can become an important node for secure digital infrastructure, embedded trust, industrial cybersecurity, and workforce development.
Across all these strategic initiatives, the website should emphasize that ESE is not only conducting faculty-led research, but actively building larger platforms that can shape ecosystems, train manpower, attract partnerships, and contribute to national capability in meaningful ways.
