Accenture opens a new Cybersecurity R&D Lab in Israel

Accenture has opened a Cybersecurity R&D Lab in Israel, to enable research in advanced threat intelligence, industrial internet security, cyber defence solutions and more.

Located in Herzliya, the lab comprises collaborative research areas and spaces for showcasing prototypes of cybersecurity solutions. This will enable Accenture, venture capitalists, startups and universities and its clients to work on R&D projects in advanced threat intelligence, active defence and industrial internet of things (IIoT) security by applying the latest developments in artificial intelligence, blockchain and advanced analytics from Accenture’s global network of labs and innovation centres.

Research efforts will also focus on active defence, including stealth monitoring and passive threat detection techniques, incident response aimed at developing forensic techniques, and malicious code analysis.

“The newest lab will take advantage of our global footprint and ecosystem partners in cybersecurity to give clients unparalleled access to emerging, intelligence-driven threat identification solutions and post-attack remediation procedures,” said Lisa O’Connor, managing director at Accenture Labs – Security R&D. “Our top priority is to empower our clients to be resilient to cyber threats and attacks, and to be able to take the right actions faster. That is why we are investing in Israel’s ecosystem and in advanced cybersecurity technologies that can spark powerful innovations.” For the full article click here
