Project aims to develop two similar R&EHubs – first in Ukraine and second in Georgia, taking into account and using as examples the EU countries’ universities best practices. R&EHubs will include three innovative laboratories in the field of Cybersecurity of 5G and beyond society. These two R&EHubs (UA and GE) will be a basis for the development labs, practical tasks in the framework of four educa

tional courses (modules) within the project. Also, it will become a basis for the training of interested staff, upskilling program, conducting research activities, investigating cyberattacks in this area, etc. It is expected that all the laboratories will be cross-connected and the remote access to all interested stakeholders will be provided using one common R&EHub platform.

On February 20, we hosted an online demonstration of how the Research & Educational Hubs (R&EHubs) operate within Erasmus+ SECURE, bringing together stakeholders from Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Georgia 🇬🇪.

During the session, we showcased how R&EHubs work in practice — collaboration formats, learning workflows, and the operational processes that enable effective joint activities across institutions and countries.

We also presented the lab environments that power the hubs:
• 5G/6G Security Lab
• Quantum Lab
• AI/ML Security Lab

A key part of the demonstration was the remote access approach: how participants can securely connect to the environment and explore it for hands-on activities.

Thank you to everyone who joined — students, educators, researchers, telecom and cybersecurity professionals, SMEs, and public-sector representatives. Your engagement confirms the strong interest in next-generation security for resilient communications, and we look forward to continued collaboration.

From January 26–29, 2026, partners of the Erasmus+ SECURE project met in Valladolid (University of Valladolid - UVa) to align on progress, coordinate next steps across countries, and prepare for the upcoming project phase.

🧭 What we focused on
Keeping the work moving forward: reviewing deliverables, clarifying responsibilities, and agreeing on concrete actions for the next months.

🔎 Key highlights:

✅ Course development & rollout
We advanced the implementation plan for four innovative cybersecurity courses, aligning content, timelines, and delivery approach.

✅ Innovative Education & Research Hub (5G and beyond)
We worked on the roadmap for establishing a cross-country hub aimed at building a cybersecurity workforce for a 5G and beyond society — including dedicated discussions for Ukraine and Georgia.

✅ Teacher training & professional development
We reviewed progress across training activities, mapped dependencies, discussed risks, and agreed on milestones and next steps.

✅ Impact & dissemination
We aligned on how to scale results, communicate outcomes, and maximize the project’s long-term value for academia and industry.

🧠 Training track: Quantum & Post-Quantum Security
A strong part of the program was dedicated to quantum computing fundamentals and quantum/post-quantum cybersecurity, including insights from IMUVA and the SCAYLE quantum lab.

🚀 Excited about the next phase — turning alignment into measurable results and real capacity building for cybersecurity education and innovation.
