Radio Astronomy Meets Cybersecurity
| Submitter: | Andre Gunst |
| Description: | During tours in the lab we always talk big about the capacity of our digital systems, specifically that one board (UniBoard^2) can handle the same amount of data as all of the internet traffic of the Amsterdam Internet Exchange. To put these words to the test and further investigate the applicability of our systems for other disciplines, recently a Cybersecurity Matchmaking Event in The Hague ( https://matchmaking-cybersecurity2018.b2match.io/ ) was visited. Via speeddates contact with others have been established who might potentially be interested. Seeking collaborations with other disciplines is actively stimulated by NWO-I. For us the advantage is that we can gain knowledge about the way other applications deal with their big data challenges. Additionally working in collaborations can unleash other sources of funding for the research and development projects we would like to pursue for the next generation radio telescopes. The photo shows me, giving a spontaneous pitch about our trustworthy digital systems during the event. |
