Recent cyber-attacks have shed new light on how vulnerable we all are when it comes to cybersecurity.
At Texas A&M Central Texas they are taking research and education in cybersecurity very seriously, and one large investment could make a huge impact on what they can achieve.
U.S. Representative John Carter has successfully secured $2.9 million in cybersecurity research funding for the university, as part of the Defense Appropriations bill.
The money would be to help fund research that is both crucial and time-sensitive.
âIn todayâs world, cyber is part of the future battlefield. In fact, weâre seeing it right now with these cyberattacks on both industry and governmental locations," said Congressman John Carter.
