Centre for Information, Intelligence and Security Systems (CIISS)
CIISS is a multidisciplinary applied research centre which understands the needs of the business community and conducts advanced research across the spectrum of digital technologies. The mission of CIISS is to research, design and develop innovative solutions to real-life problems in the areas of security, digital forensics, healthcare, education, business intelligence and environmental protection.
The 2008 Research Assessment Exercise rated most of our research as world-leading, or internationally excellent or recognised. We strive for a good balance between academic research and its applications in the public and private sectors. Our research also contributes to enhancing the quality of undergraduate and postgraduate student learning in the University.
Our highly-skilled team is working on world-class research and enterprise projects across the Centre’s application domains. For example, our ground-breaking Spectral-360 technology, which is integrated into our Adaptive Video Analytics solutions, makes false alarms and missed events a thing of the past in almost any CCTV system. Our extensive portfolio of PhD research projects and links with industry has resulted in patents, KTP projects, and excellence awards; further evidence of the high quality of our applied research.
