The University of Bradford welcomed Baroness Angela Harris to officially open its new Cyber Security Interdisciplinary Centre.
The baroness visited the university on Thursday, 10 August, and joined the Vice-Chancellor, academics and students in celebrating the creation of the new centre.
The university has created a Cyber Security Interdisciplinary Centre to carry out focused research into cyber security issues, the first of which was a joint radicalisation project with West Yorkshire Police.
The centre has a wealth of expertise from many different backgrounds including computer science, digital forensics, cryptography, peace studies and social science, which enables them to look at the data available from different perspectives to that of the police, to understand how an individual can be radicalised through online means.
