Cyber research facility opens at Sandia
New lab provides 'enhanced collaboration' with industry, academia, international partners

Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore opened its new Cybersecurity Technologies Research Laboratory this week, a facility that offers an open, yet controlled area, for cybersecurity professionals to meet and discuss critical cyber research issues.

The new laboratory is located at the Livermore Valley Open Campus, located off Greenville Road near East Avenue.

Over the last 40 years, Sandia has built a foundation for cybersecurity. Now, that lab is bringing that technology to a special facility situated in an open environment that will allow for enhanced collaboration with industry, academia and international partners.

Sandia National Laboratories is a multi-program laboratory operated by Sandia Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Co., for the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration. With main facilities in Albuquerque as well as Livermore, Sandia has major R&D responsibilities in national security, energy and environmental technologies and economic competitiveness.
