CyberRiskLab

CyberRiskLab is a space for collaborative learning about cyber risks and response strategies.

CyberRiskLab is an outreach activity: an interdisciplinary platform for reflection, discussion and learning, inviting everyone: school pupils and university students, the general public, and also professionals, researchers and decision makers.

We make abstract cyber risks more tangible in workshops, seminars, exhibitions, and other hands-on activities like experiments, role-playing exercises, and games. We encourage active participation, to raise awareness and foster resilience. We want a creative exchange with people of different ages and backgrounds.

Find us here: in room 106285 (Building 10, floor 6 in at Ångström Laboratory, see map).
