Fraunhofer Institute for Communication, Information Processing and Ergonomics FKIE

For their dedicated leadership and collaboration in the NATO STO Research Task Group “Full-Duplex Radio Technology for Military Applications” (IST-175-RTG) Fraunhofer FKIE scientists Prof. Dr. Marc Adrat, Dr. Markus Antweiler and Matthias Tschauner have been awarded the “NATO Information Systems Technology (IST) Panel Team Excellence Award.”

Cyberattacks have become a major risk. To prevent data theft or extortion, many companies and other organizations are turning in response to Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, which use detection rules, also known as signatures, to identify cyberattacks. AMIDES, a new open source system from Fraunhofer FKIE, uses AI to identify attacks that traditional signatures miss.

Against the backdrop of an unstable geopolitical environment, defence and security have become a major focus of activities in politics, the public sphere and research. It was with these areas foremost in mind that Fraunhofer President Professor Holger Hanselka paid a visit to the two Wachtberg institutes FKIE and FHR, which together represent the largest defence location within the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft.

Three institutions — Bundeswehr Command and Staff College in Hamburg, Fraunhofer FKIE, and Helmut Schmidt University/University of the Armed Forces Hamburg — signed a cooperation agreement to utilise developed knowledge for training the German Armed Forces’ leadership.
