\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe aim of the project<\/b> is to create a Cybersecurity Competence Center at Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik University in Ko\u0161ice (KC KB UPJ\u0160). Within this competence center, all mandatory and optional activities are implemented, which are focused on education, research and expert activities in the field of information and cybersecurity, data protection, cybercrime and protection against disinformation.<\/b> At the same time, KC KB UPJ\u0160 implements international cooperation<\/b> with academic partners from abroad andprovides consultations<\/b> for the possibility of preparing and submitting projects in the field of cybersecurity. The creation of the KC KB UPJ\u0160 reflects several problems that can currently be identified in the field of information and cybersecurity (hereinafter referred to as \"CIS\"): \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The project creates outputs<\/b>, among which we can include the preparation of a study plan for the master's degree of the applied informatics study program, one branch of which focuses on cybersecurity. Several subjects will be created or modified for this study plan.<\/p>

    At the same time, as an output of the project, an educational offer<\/b> is being created for various target groups of public administration employees.<\/p>

    In the context of the project, cooperation with high schools<\/b>is being strengthened, especially in the form of the activities of CyberTeams<\/b>, their education and subsequent involvement in spreading security awareness among the general public.<\/p>

    As part of educational activities, new knowledge and experience in the field of CIS, as well as related areas, are being summarized. These are currently supplemented by various forms of experiential education.<\/p>

    The project is currently summarizing recommendations for public administration in various areas of CIS and plans are being made to implement several campaigns aimed at increasing the security awareness of public administration employees.<\/p>

    As part of research activities<\/b> , several scientific outputs are being published in existing research areas and new possible research collaborations are being created to strengthen the research and development potential of the KC KB UPJ\u0160.<\/p>

    An equally important outcome of the project is the addition of equipment and training to the university CSIRT team and the possibility of providing expert activities<\/b> for accredited CSIRT teams in the Slovak Republic for the purpose of a faster and more adequate response to cyber security incidents.<\/p>

    The place of implementation of the project activities is the Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik University in Ko\u0161ice and its professional departments.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
