Laboratory for Cybersecurity and Information Integrity
Located at the Centre for Energy, Materials and Telecommunications of INRS, LACSII researchers are developing new tools to foster cybersecurity and information integrity from the perspective of recent developments of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Prof. Anderson Avila
Assistant Professor at INRS-EMT and member of the INRS-UQO Joint Research Unit in Cybersecurity, Prof. Anderson Avila is the scientifique head of the LACSII.
INRS-UQO Joint Research Unit in Cybersecurity
The Joint Research Units (UMRs) was created to consolidate interuniversity research and innovation clusters across Québec (particularly outside urban areas) through joint projects by the
Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) and five partner universities from the Université du Québec (UQ) network. The Joint Research Unit at INRS-UQO is focused on cybersecurity.
