Visitors can experience cybersecurity research in an accessible way, engage in conversation with researchers, and test their knowledge through short quizzes. The focus will be on insights into research for digital sovereignty    <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the Federal Government\u2019s Open House, the Federal Ministry of the Interior is also opening its doors to the public. The Cyberagentur will be presenting its work on the cybersecurity of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The focus will be on research, digital sovereignty, and the question of how the government, academia, and society can proactively address future risks in cyberspace.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Cyberagentur\u2019s booth is designed as an open and dialogue-oriented information hub. Instead of abstract technical jargon, visitors can expect an accessible introduction to complex topics in cybersecurity research. Interactive touchscreens guide visitors through the Cyberagentur\u2019s research areas and future topics, demonstrating why cybersecurity is a central challenge for the future facing the government, the economy, and society.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A key focus is on direct dialogue. Researchers and staff members from the Cyberagentur will explain what the agency is working on, how research programs are developed, and why technological sovereignty is relevant to Germany\u2019s internal and external security. Topics include artificial intelligence, secure digital administration, trustworthy systems, and the question of how research can identify new technological dependencies, risks, and courses of action at an early stage.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCybersecurity doesn\u2019t just determine a government\u2019s ability to act in times of crisis. It begins with research, long before new technologies become part of everyday life. It is precisely this forward-looking perspective that we want to highlight at the Federal Government\u2019s Open House,\u201d says Prof. Dr. Christian Hummert, Research Director at the Cyberagentur. \u201cOur aim is to engage with citizens and show why digital sovereignty requires concrete research, thoughtful questions, and a long-term commitment.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also encourage visitors to get involved. Through a series of short questions about cybersecurity, visitors can test their ability to spot suspicious online situations. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current HAL2027 ideas competition on the \u201cCybersecure Administrative Workplace of the Future\u201d and the MARLIN Challenges on \u201cMaritime Communication of the Future\u201d will also be presented. In addition, the Cyberagentur provides information on career paths, internships, and professional prospects in cybersecurity research. As a result, the event is aimed not only at visitors with a general interest but also at students, emerging talent, professionals, and people who want to work at the intersection of science, technology, and public safety.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The presentation at the Federal Government\u2019s Open House makes the Cyberagentur\u2019s work accessible to a broad audience and demonstrates that cybersecurity research is not an abstract, specialized field. It is an essential component of modern security measures. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">Further information and registration:<\/h3>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberagentur.de\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">About the Cyberagentur<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/entdecke.cyberagentur.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover the Cyberagentur<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/idee.cyberagentur.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HAL2027 Design Competition<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/challenge.cyberagentur.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MARLIN Challenge<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bundesregierung.de\/breg-de\/schwerpunkte\/tag-der-offenen-tuer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">More about the Federal Government&#8217;s Open House<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Federal Government Open House The Agentur f\u00fcr Innovation in der Cybersicherheit GmbH (Cyberagentur) will participate in the Federal Government\u2019s Open House at the Federal Ministry of the Interior on June 20 and 21, 2026, with an interactive information booth.
