Secure and responsible
digital economy

Today, Brittany is working forward to a more responsible digital approach, aiming at digitalizing its economy and playing a leading role in digital innovation at the French and European scales.

Such transformation needs to be conducted with security, sustainability and ethical issues at heart.

Cybersecurity and data management are structuring the Breton research landscape. Beyond labs, researchers are also collaborating with innovative actors in networks such as Images & Réseaux cluster and the French Tech. This helps diffusion of good practices, technologies and help create businesses.

French leading research institute in digital technologies, Inria is particularly working on cybersecurity and sustainable digital technology.

In Rennes and Brest, researchers from IMT Atlantique are working on various domains ranging from modelisation and design of electronics to software engineering and artificial intelligence.

Researchers at Université de Rennes 1 are specialized in cryptology, cybersecurity, Big Data, electronics and photonics.

Université de Bretagne-Sud is focused on cybersecurity and data sciences.

At UBO, research on digital technologies is conducted in interaction with other disciplines, especially with mathematics. They are indeed essential to coding, modelling and digital simulation.
