In order to protect businesses against hackers and criminals, we must ensure that our skills and knowledge are up to date at all times. Therefore, security research is just as important to our work as is building up a security community to promote an exchange of knowledge. After all, more security can only be achieved if many people take on the task.

Our CST Academy and the HeroLab are essential parts of our security mission. We share the knowledge we gain in our practical work and our research through training courses and publications.

In this context, the usd HeroLab publishes a series of papers on current vulnerabilities and security issues.
