Cybersecurity training, research centre opens at Canadian university

From the creator

A new centre designed to research and train to defend against cybercrimes has been opened at Canada's University of Calgary. Dubbed the Cyber Assessement, Training and Experimentation (CATE) Centre, it features a cyber range that can simulate digital environments, systems, threats and defences. It also brings together a range of industry experts and law enforcement for Alberta’s first cyber safety and research centre. “The CATE Centre is a state-of-the-art facility undertaking novel research and development while training the next generation of cybersecurity and privacy experts that are critical to the safety of Albertans and to Alberta’s economy,” Dr. Ken Barker, U of C computer science professor and scientific director of the National Cybersecurity Consortium said in a statement. The private-public partnership involves U.S. defence contractor Raytheon and Calgary-based Enfocom, a cyber range provider. Alberta Innovates and Prairies Economic Development Canada also provide funding for the CATE Centre. Tomasia Dasilva has the details.
