Every day, we develop solutions that shape the future.
The Interdisciplinary Centre for Reliability, Security and Trust (SnT) of the University of Luxembourg is characterised by its double focus on fundamental and applied research. We define our work by focusing on excellence in scientific research, and we give it context through partnerships with industry, government, and international partners. Our researchers are active in several international research projects funded by the EU and the European Space Agency.

ICT Research at the Service of Society
Interdisciplinarity is part of our DNA: we conduct complex ICT projects using multiple technical approaches, and regularly collaborate with several other entities at the University of Luxembourg, at a local level, and abroad.
For instance, during the Covid-19 pandemic, we worked together with our colleagues at LCSB, FSTM and FDEF to conduct research on the epidemiological, technological and regulatory aspects of the pandemic with the support of the local Luxembourg Research Fund (FNR).
‟ We attract top talent from around the world, and I am proud to lead such a skilled and diverse team.”

Director of SnT
Every SnT experience is international. Our talent join us from all four corners of the globe, making the centre a rich environment full of cross-cultural connections. At the end of their time with us, just over 30% of our alumni find success in Luxembourg, and even more travel on to new positions at universities and companies around the world.
We invite researchers from diverse academic backgrounds to contribute to our projects in areas such as: network security, information assurance, model-driven security, cloud computing, cryptography, satellite systems, vehicular networks, as well as ICT services and applications.

What Our Alumni Think
‟
“Two things really stand out to me as being unique to SnT looking back now.
First was the small size of the research teams. I really enjoyed working in a team where we all knew each other. Second was the opportunities for international collaboration.
Beyond my collaboration with the University of Nancy, I worked closely with Purdue University (US). I’d say SnT was more like an international family than a big university.”
