Cyber start-ups to showcase the innovative security solutions of tomorrow

Last year's CyberASAP Demo Day (February 2020) in London.

  • Digital Infrastructure Minister, Matt Warman to deliver keynote at cyber innovation demo day
  • Cyber solutions on show include security applications for people with disabilities and maritime cyber risk assessment
  • Applications for 2021/22 accelerator programme now open

The CyberASAP Demo Day on 18 February provides an opportunity to preview a promising pipeline of cyber security products and services as the final 14 teams in this year’s Cyber Security Academic Accelerator Start-up Programme (CyberASAP) pitch and demonstrate their proofs of concept to investors and industry.

The culmination of the 11-month CyberASAP (which is funded by the UK Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, and delivered by Innovate UK and KTN), the Demo Day features a diverse range of products and services – from applications for people with disabilities, to maritime cyber risk assessment.

Digital Infrastructure Minister, Matt Warman will address some of Britain’s most exciting early-stage cyber security start-ups at the virtual CyberASAP Demo Day on 18 February 2021. Ahead of his keynote address he said:

“We have some of the best cyber research institutions in the world and I look forward to hearing the new pitches at this demo day.

The CyberASAP programme plays an important role supporting academics to turn their research into market-ready products and it will not only help us build back better from the pandemic but also keep people across the country secure online.”

The Demo Day comprises a series of three-minute pitches followed by a showcase of proofs of concept in virtual booths from:

ABBA-IoT: data tampering detection system for automotive sensors (University of Leeds)

Authentibility Pass: an accessible authentication gateway for people with disabilities (University of Bournemouth)

CyberHelper, connecting machines and humans for efficient cyber investigations (University of Southampton)

CyberMIND: an AI driven platform to help Cyber Professionals to Detect, Predict and Manage Stress (University of Wolverhampton)

Secure Development: helping consultants to make the 400,000 UK developers better at security (University of Lancaster)

#ID / hash-identity: Secure Device Identity to power the future of the Internet of Things. (University of Kent)

Lupovis: Detect, Deceive, Divert, Deny, Identify (University of Strathclyde)

MaCRA (Maritime Cyber Risk Assessment): MaCRA provides dynamic, multi-dimensional risk assessment tooling, that uniquely addresses both IT and OT elements of a specific vessel system, by factoring in threat associated with both the cargo transported, and the route operated (University of Plymouth)

MemCrypt: MemCrypt protects and recovers confidential data from ransomware attacks (Edinburgh Napier University)

SALMAC Linux Threat Hunting Solution (Middlesex University)

SenseiChain: Redefining the future of Blockchains through secure real-time data analytics (University of Essex)

Shoji: The safest way for businesses to buy and sell data (Imperial College London)

SurfaceRF: Making surfaces that identify, verify and protect themselves (University of Bristol)

WhatML: Watermarking for protecting the value and the intellectual property of machine learning models (Imperial College, London)

According to the UK Cyber Security Sectoral Analysis 2020 the UK’s cyber security industry is worth an estimated £8.3 billion and it notes the sector has seen significant growth in annual revenue and employment, as well as considerable investment in early-stage companies.

Some of those early-stage companies start life as a result of CyberASAP – a programme designed to help academic teams commercialise their cyber security ideas.

CyberASAP supports the government’s vision of making the UK the safest place in the world to live and work online. Key to that is bringing together industry, academia and the government to deliver a burgeoning ecosystem of successful, innovative companies in the cyber security sector.

The CyberASAP programme is an important part of that, helping create dynamic new start-ups and providing a pipeline of commercialisation opportunities.

This is a priority area of work for the government as it looks to build back better from the pandemic by making sure the country continues to have the cutting-edge cyber security solutions needed to underpin the UK’s growing digital economy.
