In a video message for the celebration, Minister President Hendrik Wüst stated: “Our goal is clear: North Rhine-Westphalia will end up being Europe’s leading digital region and an AI hotspot. To make that occur, public acceptance is vital. The Research Center Trustworthy Data Science and Security is an essential boost to cybersecurity research study. Here, trust and security take spotlight. Only if individuals rely on brand-new technologies can we harness their complete potential.” Ina Brandes, North Rhine-Westphalia’s Minister of Culture and Science, highlighted the social relevance of the center’s research study priorities in her video message: “Here in the heart of the Ruhr region, a place is emerging where the pushing concerns of our digital society are explored with clinical quality and interest. Artificial intelligence, huge information or cybersecurity– the crucial problem is no longer whether however how these innovations enter into our daily lives: properly, transparently and securely.

Research study on protected and robust IT systems
RC Trust’s researchers establish safe and secure and robust IT systems that stay reputable even when confronted with new data, disturbances or targeted attacks. Interdisciplinary teams likewise study when and why people trust AI and where the limits lie. They design applications that keep users in control and make choices traceable, for instance in digital health, public administration or education.
