ABOUT THE TEAM

The Department of Computer & Information Sciences at Northumbria University rose 54 places to 12th position in research power in REF2021.

We are seeking to strengthen our academic staff base in the subject area of Computer Networks and Cyber Security and welcome applications for Assistant Professor/Lecturer from suitably qualified individuals.

This subject area is a key pillar of expertise within the Department: we have a large – and growing - population of students taking our BSc (Hons) Networks and Cyber Security undergraduate programme at Newcastle, where we have a range of dedicated networks and security lab spaces. We also deliver a Masters in Cyber Security which is fully certified by the UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) running from our London campus. We have been repeatedly recognised as an NCSC/EPSRC Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research (ACE-CSR), recognising our research quantity and quality. Our Cyber Security and Network Systems (CyberNets) research group, led by Professor Nauman Aslam, is conducting advanced research in the development of secure and reliable networking systems, covering a diverse range of topics such as malware and botnet detection using AI, hate speech and fake news detection, privacy preservation methods, wireless networking, mobile computing, cloud computing, IoT, and network security.
