UNIT109 is a special project of CRITAC that brings selected young scientists, engineers and technologists together to work at the CRITAC research laboratory and solve real life problems. They participate in different programs such attending live webinars from IBM, Microsoft, ACM, IEEE, ISOC etc The program is entirely funded. They gain both scientific and entrepreneural skills at the end of the program.

We have global cyber security experts on our cyber security teams and have played active roles in cyber conferences in countries such as USA, UK, France, Israel, Canada, India, South Africa, Spain etc..

...CYBER SECURITY...

We have White, Grey, Black, Red and Blue hacker teams that provide support to organisations and investigate cyber crimes. We have cyber research laboratories that archived different forms of attacks and develop systems to be resistive against cyber attacks.

CRITAC participated in IETF 102 at montreal in Canada

We have a Computer Pervasive Division and IoT Research Laboratory that focuses on technology development in edge and fog computing for Healthcare, Agriculture, Environment, Smart City, Smart Grid, Smart Homes etc.

We have Advanced Business Simulation researchers and social scientists that design and apply mathematical models in providing solutions to real life problems.

We apply statistical aproaches and advanced mathematical models to financial data in our Computational Finance laboratory

Computational Medicine and Health informatics are some of our specialized areas in the healthcare sector. We built applications to facillitate easy analysis and visualization of healthcare data. This has helped individuals with better healthcare and health institutions in delivering better services...

We analyze crime data and discover trends in crime data to inform policy makers and security agencies about our results. We provide information on trends and future developments through predictive anlytical models to help avoid incidence and also prevent crime environments from growing.

We provide support to local farmers by relying on weather information from satelites and other forms of agricultural information such as pests and diseases to aid farmers to to be better prepared.

We develop state of the arts database systems based on Blockchain and data mining approaches to help maintain data integrity and knowledge dicovery from information systems.

Etc...

We work with young researchers working on their project works or thesis in our research laboratories.

We provide mentorship to young scientists to become good scientific researchers in their respective disciplines

CRITAC Innovation and Entrepreneurship Academy help groomed young technologists with working skills and supports until their businesses becomes self-sustaining. They draw support from technical experts from CRITAC's researchers in academia and industry. The young entrepreneurs gets mentorship from other successsful graduates from the Academy.

Members of the center are encouraged to belong to global professional bodies to aid them keep their knowledge updated on global developments. This keeps us on the cutting edge.
