Cyber Innovation Hub

A cutting-edge approach to cyber security research

On Monday 24 June 2019, Airbus and Welsh Government celebrated the opening of the Cyber Lab located in Newport, Wales. Funded through Airbus Endeavr, the Cyber Lab forms an integral part of Airbus Cyber Innovation Hub.

Working closely together, we push the boundaries of cyber innovation by advancing cutting-edge cyber security research in a variety of areas. In doing so, we are actively tackling today's digital threats—and preparing for the threats of tomorrow—to ensure business continuity and to help secure people, property and information.
