Crossword launches major cybersecurity AI initiative bringing together global companies and world-class academics

Crossword Cybersecurity plc (NEX:CCS, "Crossword") has launched a major initiative, CyberAI, applying leading edge artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning techniques to real world cybersecurity challenges. CyberAI brings together world-leading academic researchers selected for their expertise in AI/Machine Learning - Dr Una-May O'Reilly from MIT, Professor Niall Adams from Imperial College London and Professor David Robertson from Edinburgh University - with a select group of global industry participants. CyberAI aims to deliver breakthrough solutions to real world, complex cybersecurity challenges facing global scale companies.
