Découvrez l'espace et la cybersécurité avec MTU
Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) a approuvé et Euro; 350 000 en financement de deux projets MTU dans le cadre du programme SFI Discover, qui vise à accroître la participation à la science, la technologie, l'ingénierie et les mathématiques (STEM) et les discussions dans tous les groupes d'âge à travers le pays.
Les deux projets mettent en évidence la valeur de l'alphabétisation STEM dans la société.L'accent est mis sur l'accessibilité, avec la langue des signes irlandaise fournie si nécessaire, et la collaboration avec des groupes sous-représentés pour atteindre le public qui ne s'engage pas normalement dans les activités STEM.
L'espace durable, dirigé par l'Observatoire du château de Blackrock, s'engagera avec des partenaires clés pour discuter de la contribution positive de l'espace à la résolution des problèmes de durabilité sur Terre et sur l'utilisation durable de l'espace lui-même.Un point culminant du projet est la Semaine spatiale en octobre qui sera un point focal pour ces discussions.Ce projet profitera des leçons apprises pendant la pandémie pour atteindre des groupes sous-représentés plus efficacement qu'auparavant.
L'Initiative Cyber Futures (www.cyberfutures.ie) engagera les jeunes, améliorant leur résilience et leur conscience de la cybersécurité, ainsi que la présentation du large éventail d'options de carrière et de voies potentielles dans le domaine.Un aspect clé du cyber-futurs est son académie de cybersécurité, qui est un programme gratuit de formation et d'éducation d'une semaine destinée à la transition et aux étudiants de 5e année, qui se déroulent en ligne en juin.Dans le cadre de ce programme, les étudiants se renseignent sur la cybersécurité, le piratage éthique, la cryptographie et plus encore.
Michael Loftus, vice-président de l'engagement externe a salué le financement SFI disant que «les initiatives de l'espace et du cyber-futurs durables sont des exemples du monde réel de la façon dont MTU ouvre la voie dans la formation des compétences, la recherche et l'engagement STEM dans l'exploration spatiale et la cybersécurité»
Les deux projets collaboreront entre eux, en concevant une capture sur le thème de l'espace, l'événement du drapeau qui donnera aux étudiants un aperçu des défis à la fois dans les STEM dans l'espace et la cybersécurité.Les événements de capture-the-drôle sont des événements basés sur les défis utilisés dans l'industrie de la cybersécurité pour pratiquer et présenter les compétences, ainsi que pour identifier de nouveaux talents.
La présidente de la MTU, Maggie Cusack, a déclaré: «Nous sommes ravis d'accueillir le financement de ces projets, qui élargissent les possibilités pour les personnes de toutes capacités de s'impliquer dans les STEM.Rendre l'éducation STEM plus accessible conduit à des citoyens mieux informés et à des apprenants mieux informés les permettant d'explorer les nombreuses carrières passionnantes dans les secteurs STEM. »
Discover Space and Cyber Security with MTU Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) has approved €350,000 in funding for two MTU projects under the SFI Discover programme, which aims to increase participation in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) careers and discussions in all age groups across the country. Both projects highlight the value of STEM literacy in society. There is an emphasis on accessibility, with Irish Sign Language provided where required, and collaboration with underrepresented groups to reach audiences that do not normally engage with STEM activities. Sustainable Space, led by the Blackrock Castle Observatory, will engage with key partners to discuss the positive contribution of space to solving sustainability issues on earth, and on the sustainable use of space itself. A highlight of the project is SPACE week in October which will be a focal point for these discussions. This project will take advantage of lessons learned during the p |

Un récent rapport dirigé par Cyber Ireland et Cyber Skills, qui est le premier du genre en Irlande, a constaté qu'il y avait une opportunité de positionner l'Irlande en tant que leader mondial de la cybersécurité et de faire passer la main-d'œuvre à plus de 17 000 d'ici 2030.font partie des conclusions du rapport qui a identifié 489 sociétés de cybersécurité opérant à travers l'Irlande qui utilisent des équipes de cybersécurité.
Le ministre d'État en fonction des marchés publics, de l'économie d'économie et de l'économie circulaire, M. Ossian Smyth, a abordé le rapport: «Il y a eu plusieurs incidents importants en cybersécurité au cours des dernières années, y compris l'incident affectant le HSE en mai de l'année dernière.Je me réjouis de la collaboration entre Cyber Irlande et Cyber Skills sur l'état du rapport du secteur de la cybersécurité en Irlande.Ces résultats seront essentiels pour développer nos objectifs ambitieux pour soutenir la croissance et le développement futurs du secteur de la cybersécurité dans les années à venir. »
Cluster Manager of Cyber Ireland, le Dr Eoin Byrne a déclaré: «Ce rapport montre la taille et l'échelle du secteur de la cybersécurité, essentielle à notre économie et à notre société, qui emploie 7 300 professionnels et contribue et euro; 1,1 milliard en valeur brute (GVA) par an par an.La cybersécurité est une industrie en croissance rapide, et nous avons le potentiel en Irlande pour passer à cette industrie à 17 000 emplois et & euro; 2,5 milliards de choses en GVA annuelles d'ici 2030, avec les bons soutiens et mesures commerciales. »
Bien que les conclusions du rapport aient confirmé que 83% des entreprises s'attendent à ce que leur équipe de cybersécurité augmente au cours des douze prochains mois, 61% ont noté un problème de recrutement, de formation et de rétention, comme un manque de candidats sur le marché du travail avec le appropriéNiveau de compétence (41%), manque de compétences non techniques (22%) ou salaires inabordables (21%).L'accès à la formation et à l'éducation est essentiel dans l'industrie pour garantir que la demande de compétences ne l'emporte pas sur l'offre.
Le professeur Donna O \\ 'Shea, président de la cybersécurité de l'Université technologique de Munster (MTU), a ajouté que «l'opportunité pour l'Irlande de croître et de développer le secteur de la cybersécurité à 17 000 professionnels, dépend d'une offre d'individus convenablement qualifiés.L'Initiative de HEA Cyber Skills vise à relever le défi des talents et des compétences, en réduisant les obstacles à la participation à l'industrie, en augmentant et en reskilling les professionnels, ce qui les prépare à la fin de leurs cours.Cela se fait avec une expertise tirée des principaux leaders de l'industrie et une collaboration au sein de la communauté scientifique »
Les investissements dans les entreprises de cybersécurité atteignent des niveaux record en 2021 de plus de 20 milliards de dollars dans le monde, et au cours des 5 dernières années, 20 sociétés de cybersécurité irlandaises ont augmenté et euro; 110 millions d'investissements externes pour financer l'expansion et la croissance des opérations.Cependant, il a été constaté que 26% des entreprises qui ont répondu ont été confrontées à des problèmes de levée ou de l'obtention du financement.L'accès rapide aux investisseurs est essentiel pour le financement, le développement, la concurrence, les connexions et l'accès aux marchés et les start-ups irlandaises de cybersécurité exigent que ce financement évolue rapidement leur entreprise pour répondre aux demandes du marché.

Comme présenté par RTE
Une nouvelle enquête a révélé que 61% des entreprises de cybersécurité ont eu des problèmes liés au personnel lorsqu'il s'agit de recrutement du personnel.
Selon le rapport de Cyber Ireland et Cyber Skills, les problèmes rencontrés comprennent un manque de candidats sur le marché du travail avec le niveau de compétence approprié, la concurrence d'autres entreprises de cybersécurité, le manque de compétences non techniques et les salaires inabordables.
Le rapport \\ 'State of the Cyber Security in Ireland \' a révélé que 83% des entreprises interrogées s'attendent à ce que leurs équipes de cybersécurité augmentent au cours des douze prochains mois.
Demain sera le premier anniversaire de la Cyber Attack, l'exécutif des services de santé et le HSE a déclaré qu'il était particulièrement difficile de recruter le personnel de cybersécurité en ce moment en raison de la compétition pour les talents.
Aujourd'hui, le rapport de cybersécurité de \\ a été lancé par le ministre d'État avec responsabilité du secteur Ossian Smyth.
"Il y a eu plusieurs incidents importants en cybersécurité au cours des dernières années, notamment l'incident affectant le HSE en mai de l'année dernière", a déclaré M. Smith.

As featured by RTE A new survey has found that 61% of cyber security businesses have had personnel-related issues when it comes to recruiting staff. According to the report from Cyber Ireland and Cyber Skills, the problems encountered include a lack of candidates in the labour market with the appropriate skill level, competition from other cyber security businesses, a lack of non-technical skills and unaffordable salaries. The \'State of the Cyber Security Sector in Ireland\' report found that 83% of businesses surveyed expect their cyber security teams to grow over the next twelve months. Tomorrow will be the first anniversary of the Health Service Executive cyber attack and the HSE has said it is \'especially difficult\' to recruit cyber security staff right now because of the competition for talent. Today\'s cyber security report was launched by the Minister of State with responsibility for the sector Ossian Smyth. "There have been several significant cyber security incidents in the past number of years, including the incident affecting the HSE in May of last year," Mr Smith said. "These findings will be key in developing our ambitious targets to support future growth and development of the cyber security sector in the years ahead," he added. The study found that there is an |

By Dr Lubna Luxmi Dhirani and Dr Tom Newe, featured in Silicon Republic University of Limerick\'s Dr Lubna Luxmi Dhirani and Dr Tom Newe examine the security skills shortage in Ireland and how it can be addressed. As the amount of interconnected smart buildings, smart grids and autonomous vehicles etc increases, we need to ask the question – what if the critical underlying infrastructure of this smart world is hacked, controlled or manipulated for a ransom? In the modern times we live in, the impact and potentially damaging consequences of a cyberattack are much greater than in the past. Data is the new gold and cybercriminals are the gold rush prospectors of this era. Recent attacks include the HSE cyberattack in 2020, which is estimated to have cost the Irish taxpayer more than €100m. The world\'s most valuable oil producer Saudi Aramco was breached in 2021, where hackers scraped 1TB of data and kept it on a leak site while seeking a ransom of $50m in cryptocurrency. The hackers had access to data that contained the full information on 14,254 employees, their names, passport details, phone numbers, email, job title, residence permits, as well as business/company data such as project specifications, client lists etc. This information is of potential use and value to many different types of threat actors on the dark web. How this happened is still relatively unknown. If the response is to pay these ransoms, then the cyber prospectors will keep on digging until the shortage of cyber professionals capable of combatting and preventing these threats is addressed. Careers in cybersecurity are professionally and financially rewarding and the sector is growing at a rate of 10pc per annum in Ireland and worldwide. Results of a recent study commissioned by Cyber Ireland, due to be published in May 2022, show that there are more than 450 cybersecurity businesses in the Republic of Ireland that employ close to 7,000 people. This growing cybersecurity sector will require an increasing number of graduates of all classifications over the coming years and, in particular, cyber-skilled workers are needed. Cybersecurity skills and a good understanding of how these skills can impact our daily lives, wider society and community are important. As per 2021 statistics, around 98pc of successful cyberattacks were of the social engineering variety – psychological manipulation to trick users into making security mistakes or giving away sensitive information – and were successful because of a lack of cyber awareness and understanding by the end user. With the continuous growth of, and increased dependency on, smart devices and technology at work and at home, the threat of cyberattacks on business and individuals is an ever-increasing problem. Now is the time to consider a career in cybersecurity. GDPR compliance and the EU directive NIS2 assist in increasing the level of cybersecurity in Europe, but every day new vulnerabilities and threat scenarios surface. In these cyber-challenging times, people need to be trained in cyber defence, offence, threat intelligence, cyber standards and risk, data and network security, etc. Careers in the cyber world are diverse and versatile. Many different skills are required and this enables different people with different abilities to have rewarding careers. Cybersecurity solutions are not always technical – inculcating a good understanding of security issues, solutions and risks and being able to communicate the necessary solutions and strategies effectively will always be necessary. The Cyber Ireland study highlights a significant shortfall in cybersecurity talent in Ireland against a backdrop of increased demand. This report states that one of the most significant factors leading to data breaches across digital structures globally is the lack of training of non-technical employees and the lack of highly skilled cybersecurity professionals. For many seeking training in cybersecurity, a full-time course is not an option and they seek on-the-job training options instead. This | Vulnerability Threat Studies Technical | ★★ | |

Whenever we are trying to master a new skill, we have all heard about the importance of practise. The associated attention, rehearsal and repetition leads to the acquisition of new knowledge or skills that can later be developed into more complex skillsets. This sentiment has been seen throughout history, where some of the world\'s most masterful people have shared a similar philosophy that is still true today: Bruce Lee - “Practice makes perfect. After a long time of practising, our work will become natural, skillfull, swift and steady” Abraham Lincoln - “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” Japanese Proverb – “Tomorrow\'s battle is won during todays practice” Vincent Van Gough – “As practise makes perfect, I cannot but make progress, each drawing one makes, each study one paints is a step forward” Marshawn Lynch - “When you get to practice against the best, it brings the best out of you.” Martha Graham – “Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired” Unknown - “Don\'t practise until you get it right, practice until you can\'t get it wrong” Others might disagree slightly: Vince Lombardi – “Practise does not make perfect. Only perfect practise makes perfect” So, the message is clear, to master a skill, we need to practise but we need to practise against the best and in the best most realistic possible environment. In terms of cybersecurity, as the cyber threat environment grows more intense, cyber defence groups require more and more skilled professionals to help with the onslaught of cyberattacks. However, they are finding it increasingly difficult to recruit and hire trained security professionals as having a degree in cybersecurity is usually not enough to give an individual the skills required for mitigating sophisticated attacks. For Cyber Security professionals, the required practise involves realistic breach scenarios or cyberattacks. These breaches or cyberattacks are any attempt to gain unauthorized access to a computer, computing system or computer network with the intent to cause damage. The aim to disable, disrupt, destroy or control computer systems or to alter, block, delete, manipulate or steal the data held within these systems. Day-to-day work in cybersecurity offers few opportunities for such training on the job, resulting in the required practise being an extremely difficult thing to achieve. When you think about it, cyberattacks are seemingly in the news every day, which seems to contradict my previous statement. However, the results of a cyberattack can range from causing inconvenience to dire consequences. A cyberattack on critical infrastructure and/or healthcare sectors don\'t just affect data or computer systems, they can wreak havoc in the physical world. This was seen all too well in Ireland in the not so distant past. So, cyberattacks are prevalent but the consequences mean we aim to prevent as many breaches as possible and reduce the impact, contain and eradicate any attack that exploits a system. There lies the problem, cyber security professionals require realistic breach scenarios and cyberattacks to train and become sufficiently skilled but cyber professionals are consistently working hard to prevent such attacks in the real-world. So the question is, “how do we train cyber security professionals to deal with the challenging ever-changing cyber environment?”. The answer is a Cyber Range! A Cyber Range provides a secure, sandboxed virtual interactive training environment that can simulate real-world feel scenarios and environments, including complex IT environments and attacks on IT infrastructure, networks, software platforms and applications. As a result, a cyber range infrastructure provides the required training and practise elements of realistic breach scenarios and cyberattacks.

2022-02-10 00:00:00 | Cyber Security & # 8211;Une guerre de Troie où nous gagnons Cyber Security – A Trojan War where we win (lien direct) |
Written by Dr. Anila Mjeda, Cyber Skills Lecturer In Ancient Greek literature, Troy is portrayed as a powerful kingdom of the Heroic Age. Troy\'s ability to withstand battles and attacks was due to the strength of its walls which, legend has it, were built by Greek gods, Poseidon and Apollo. This was all the more evident when Troy \'fell\' after it\'s supposed, impenetrable outer perimeter, got breached. This lesson from Greek Mythology echoes ever true in today\'s software systems. Our Cyber Security mechanisms must be approached in a manner called \'Defence-in-depth”, where a number of defence mechanisms are layered to offer better protection to the system. (Imagine the medieval castles\' layers of fine battlements, towers, and \'high\' and \'steep\' walls.) What is most vital in Cyber Security, is the inner most layer of a strong, defence-in-depth. This layer should start with secure coding which is a concept we call \'Shifting Left\'. Shifting Left Shifting left, in essence means incorporating security at the beginning of a project, such as data collecting, and incorporating security activities in each of the stages of the software development lifecycle. The shifting left metaphor stems from the fact that people whose native language is written from left to right, tend to perceive left (think of the outmost left on a page) as the place where one begins their work. As a developer, will your application need to handle credit card data? Will the users of your application be allowed to upload their own files to the system, and which third-party components will you be using in the system? These are but a fraction of the security considerations to be analysed from the beginning of any project. Today\'s software systems are inherently interconnected, and we cannot simply draw up the bridge and defend our systems medieval style. Software systems use libraries, APIs, microservices and in general a variety of components that translate to an end-product. There are complex dependencies, many of which to third-party software. Furthermore, modern approaches such as Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Security as Code (SaC), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) push more functionality into the software domain. This blurring of the boundaries means that security is not the job of only the security professionals and calls for the development team to play a crucial role in it. Software developers are talented and inventive creators and as cyber-attacks increase in numbers and severity, it is vital they collaborate closely with the security professionals and get the proper training to interweave security into their creations. While proper training of developers is the real answer to prevent vulnerabilities creeping up into our apps, if I were to start from one element, it would be the mentality of Zero-Trust. While I do not recommend it as a mentality for life, I do very much recommend it in all thing\'s cybersecurity. The Zero-Trust concept extends from infrastructure to software. In fact, one aspect of our software which if we do right, would solve most of our security woes is zero-trusting all inputs. Zero-Trust Your Inputs Language purists might forgive this conversion of zero-trust into a verb, on the grounds that placing no trust on all inputs (even when they come from your own system), would help us mitigate most of our security troubles. You may be asking, “Why don\'t we just do it then, and “solve” security once and for all?”. Part of the difficulty relies on identifying every single input. Did we identify all the cloud workflows that can trigger our serverless functions? Are there any unforeseen ways into our database (Hello injection vulnerabilities)? Can an attacker give instructions to the server and resultantly gain access they should not have (Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities)? Can our web-based system be commandeered to attack our legitimate users (Cross Site Scripting (XSS) v | Vulnerability Cloud | ★★ | |

2021-07-29 00:00:00 | Pourquoi les fraudeurs nous blitz-ils avec des appels téléphoniques sur l'escroquerie? Why are fraudsters blitzing us with scam phone calls? (lien direct) |
Chair of Cybersecurity at MTU, Dr. Donna O\'Shea, contributed to this article in the Irish Times This week I have received a half dozen mobile calls from a number purporting to be very similar to my own. The caller ID shows an 087 number – like my own – and the subsequent four digits were also identical to mine, while the last three varied each time. In the jargon, this is known as “neighbour spoofing”, when a false caller ID is sent, seeming to come from the same area you live in, or a familiar looking number, to make it more likely that you will answer. When I did answer a not very convincing automated recording from “the department of social protection department” said fraud had been associated with my Personal Public Service Number (PPSN). Many of you will have received similar calls, trying to get you to “press a key” and talk to someone who tries to get you to divulge your PPSN, name, and in some cases, bank details. A recent scam text pretending to be from an Irish bank tells users that access to their account has been restricted due to a hacking attempt and invites them to input details to unlock it. These are all part of the seemingly endless cycle of scams which seem to have exploded over the past couple of years – and got increasingly sophisticated. But why is this happening? Let\'s look, as we would with any business, at the economics of the phone frauds. 1. Falling barriers to entry One of the first things with any business is to look at the barriers to getting involved. Whether for a criminal or legal enterprise, the cost of establishment is vital and can have a key bearing on activity levels and competition. Up to recent years, undertaking phone scams that involved hiding numbers and making thousands of calls required a significant level of technical knowledge. Now, according to Dr Donna O\'Shea, head of the computer science department of Cork Institute of Technology (CIT), the requisite “exploit” kits are downloadable, can leverage VOIP (voice over internet protocol) technology to call from PCs and display fake numbers on the user\'s phone. “You don\'t have to be a technical person to do it any more,” she said. It is still hard to account for the massive volumes of calls now happening, according to O\'Shea, but there appears to be a sharp rise in call numbers as well as increased sophistication. Relatively easily spotted calls from far-away countries are now replaced by more sophisticated “spoofing” – using numbers displaying themselves as “ordinary” Irish numbers. Showing a number close to your one is just one variant of this. It has also led to people “returning” calls to these numbers, which in some cases are valid numbers with real – and puzzled – owners. “You rang me”. . . “No I didn\'t . . .” At the moment incoming calls cannot be easily verified as coming from valid numbers. As the industry deregulated, numbers became portable – an 087 number can operate as part of the 086 network and so on – making checking incoming numbers to see if they are valid difficult – though here and internationally this issue is being examined. Some US operators have introduced controls, but it is a constant battle to stay ahead of the scammers. Not only it is relatively easy, but generating tens of thousands of phone calls is cheap, with operators taking on a tiny – or zero – cost per call. And so the “success” rate required to make money is tiny. Business Insider calculated in the US that some 2.5 million calls could be bought from a provider for just $875 by illegal telemarketers or scammers. Even if one in every 10,000 yielded revenue averaging $7 on average, the initial investment would be doubled. And of course, phone calls are just one variant of the scammers\' art, which also includes text messages and emails, all in many ways increasingly sophisticated, particularly texts allegedly from financial institutions which click through to plausible fake sites inviting you to enter your details. 2. | Tool Mobile Technical | ★★★ | |

Empowering the Younger Generation against Cyber Crime
In June 2021, Cyber Skills and Cyber Ireland collaborated, to bring 97 secondary school students from across Ireland together to participate in an online Cyber Security Academy. The academy, which ran over 4 days, was a mixture of theory, practice, challenges, and prizes that gave the 16-18 year old\'s an opportunity to demonstrate their new skills in a fun way.
As part of the academy students learnt Linux, networking, security, cryptography, and ethical hacking skills.
The academy also featured high profile guest speakers from the Garda National Crime Bureau, Security Professionals, and Industry sponsors such as Huawei.
In preparation for the academy, each student was sent out a \'cyber pack\' including a Hack5 Rubber Ducky USB device, providing the learners with real world ethical hacking skills as part of the program of activities. On the final day of the academy, learners participated in a Capture-the-Flag (CTF) event organised by Zero Days, to further encourage young people to pursue a career in cyber-security. The students divided into teams, displaying the skills they learnt as part of the academy and highlighting how a real world hack can be prevented by what they now know. The prizes for the CTF were sponsored by CMS Distribution, comprising of 4 escooters, 4 microphones and 4 Lenovo earbuds.
Cyber security has been at the forefront of many people\'s minds given the recent and high-profile attack on the HSE. Recent research carried out by Cyber Ireland has also shown that there is a skills shortage in the cyber security sector, with many organisations struggling to fill roles. There is a need to attract students to the industry as they consider their career choices. Emer O\'Neill Director Security Response Center, VMware said that “Living in aninterconnected world it is critically important that we build skills to tackle cybercrime and strengthen the security of our digital lives”. The Cyber Security Academy is a collaborative project funded by SFI Discover programme and jointly led by Ireland\'s National Cyber Security Cluster, Cyber Ireland, and the Higher Education Authority (HEA) funded initiative, Cyber Skills. Industry sponsors, CMS Distribution, Fidelity Investments, Qualcomm, VMWare, Zurich, and Huawei also supported the academy.
We\'re already preparing for next year\'s Cyber Academy as the Science Foundation Ireland Programme Call deadline is the 1st of July for 2022 projects. We plan to build on this year\'s programme (and the learnings) to expand it to other regions, partners and target groups (girls, neuro-diverse people and disadvantaged schools). We\'ll be in touch next week with further information and an ask for a letter of support if you are interested in contributing to the Cyber Academy in 2022.

Cyber Skills Launches during an urgent Cyber Security Crisis for Ireland We are living through a digital revolution and as we watch the world shift most of its systems online, it is becoming increasingly obvious that our data, systems and identities are vulnerable. Whilst we have a growing IT industry, technology rapidly changes and updates leaving all our Industries, from Finance, Industry 4.0, Healthcare etc in a skills gap for Cyber Security. Welcome to Cyber Skills Munster Technological University has officially launched Cyber Skills, a new collaborative initiative that address the critical skills shortage of cybersecurity professionals in Ireland – that can be scaled out Internationally. Cyber Skills was awarded a significant amount of funding of €8.1 million from the Human Capital Initiative programme from the Higher Authority of Ireland. Cyber Skills academic partners include Technological University Dublin, University of Limerick, University College Dublin, and the Commonwealth Cyber Initiative based in Virginia Tech in the US. By collaborating with academic institutions the initiative can keep ahead of cyber-criminals in a fast-changing technological environment. Professor Donna O\'Shea, Chairwoman of Cyber Security at MTU, is the project lead for the initiative. As an expert in Cyber Security, Donna feels: “Cybersecurity professionals are a company\'s best line of defence in a threat landscape that has become increasingly complex.” Cyber Skills works closely with Industry in order to gain insights into the needs of the Cyber Security workplace. This is to ensure that pathways, modules and credentials are designed in a way that targets up-skilling and re-skilling efficiently in order to produce workplace-ready graduates. Cyber Skills at its core has a mission of empowering IT professionals to up skill themselves flexibly. There is a strong awareness of how busy life has become for most people which is why Cyber Skills is incorporating fully online delivery and the use of the first Cyber Range in Ireland where learners can test their new skills. An added benefit is that these innovative delivery methods mean these programmes can be scaled regionally, nationally, and even internationally. What highlights the necessity for Cyber Skills is the eagerness of Industry partners to link with the initiative. Dell Technologies and Mastercard have come on board and are helping to develop three academic pathways which include certificates in Secure Network Operations, Secure Software Development, and Secure Software Architecture. Their staff are some of the first students to come on to Cyber Skills and will be some of the first graduates of the pathways. The Launch Cyber Skills hosted its official launch, virtually on June 1st at 10:30am. The hour-long launch came live from the VE Studios Cork where industry partners, cyber security researchers and university project partners took the viewer through the importance of addressing cyber skills shortages in Ireland and the benefits this project will have to industry both nationally and internationally. The launch was hosted by Professor Donna O\'Shea joined by Dr. Eoin Byrne, Cluster Manager of Cyber Ireland. Eoin led the first panel discussion with project partners Prof. Joseph Walsh Munster Technological University, Dr. Anthony Keane TU Dublin, Dr. Thomas Newe University of Limerick and Dr. Ray Genoe University College Dublin. The MC for the event was Cyber Skills Project Manager Jacqueline Kehoe. The agenda included fireside chats and panel discussions with project partners, Bob Savage from Dell and Brendan Gormley from Mastercard.
