Surrey Centre for Cyber Security
Our Centre (SCCS) is a pan-University centre focusing on cybersecurity research and consolidating cyber activities across the University. We have over 20 permanent academics and over 60 researchers.
Since 2014, we have been one of the UK's NCSC-recognised Academic Centres of Excellence in Cyber Security Research (ACE-CSR). Since 2020 we have headed Surrey's gold-level NCSC-recognised Academic Centres of Excellence in Cyber Security Education (ACE-CSE).
We work with academics, industry, and government, to establish methods and techniques which innovate in cybersecurity from design to threat prevention, from the viewpoints of research and education. Indeed, our University was awarded Cyber University of the Year at the National Cyber Awards 2023.

Through the ACE-CSE programme, Surrey is recognised as a “beacon of excellence”, supporting not only specialist education but also outreach to schools, communities and industry to help address the UK’s growing need for cyber security skills.
