Our Mission

The Team for Research in Ubiquitous Secure Technology (TRUST) is focused on the development of cyber security science and technology that will radically transform the ability of organizations to design, build, and operate trustworthy information systems for the nation's critical infrastructure. Established as a National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center, TRUST is addressing technical, operational, legal, policy, and economic issues affecting security, privacy, and data protection as well as the challenges of developing, deploying, and using trustworthy systems.

TRUST activities are advancing a leading-edge research agenda to improve the state-of-the art in cyber security; developing a robust education plan to teach the next generation of computer scientists, engineers, and social scientists; and pursuing knowledge transfer opportunities to transition TRUST results to end users within industry and the government.
