Resecurity partners with Georgia Tech to strengthen cyber-security education and research

Resecurity, a cyber-security company, has partnered with the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) to enhance cyber-security education, research, and workforce development.

The collaboration will integrate real-world cyber threat intelligence (CTI) into Georgia Tech’s academic programs, providing students with hands-on experience in tracking and analyzing digital threats.

Cyber threat intelligence in academic programs

Georgia Tech, which receives $1.37 billion in annual research funding, has established cyber-security as a key focus across multiple disciplines. The partnership will incorporate Resecurity’s cyber threat intelligence tools into coursework for students pursuing cybersecurity studies through the School of Public Policy, the School of Computer Science, and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Resecurity’s technology is already being used in three courses: Offensive Cyber Operations, Attribution, and Response; Cyber Threat Intelligence; and Advanced Intelligence, Detection Engineering, and Threat Hunting. These courses provide students with access to industry-grade tools for monitoring cyber threats, analyzing attack patterns, and assessing security risks.

Gene Yoo, CEO of Resecurity, said:

“Georgia Tech's leadership in research and education makes it an ideal partner for Resecurity. By combining our expertise in threat intelligence and cybersecurity solutions with Georgia Tech’s groundbreaking education and research capabilities, we aim to help them educate the next generation of transformative cybersecurity innovators that protect critical assets.”

Cyber-security research and training

Beyond classroom instruction, the partnership will focus on applied research and workforce development. Resecurity and Georgia Tech will work together on cybersecurity training programs and joint research initiatives. The collaboration will also involve contributions from industry professionals who will help students gain insights into emerging cyber threats and security policies.

Sergio Caltagirone, Cybersecurity Professor of the Practice at Georgia Tech, said:

“Students at Georgia Tech have already found immense value in leveraging Resecurity’s Risk and Context CTI tools to address real-world cyber risks for diverse scenarios such as intelligence-based corporate risk monitoring to digital executive protection for real industry customers. It allows the students to hunt, identify, and analyze cybercrime and digital fraud at large scales and across various environments with no risk to the students themselves; a truly unique learning experience.”
