信息安全小组针对各种与安全相关的主题运行标准的为期三年的博士研究计划（有关当前研究兴趣的详细信息，请参阅ISG Research）。ISG对200多名博士生进行了监督，其中许多人现在在网络安全行业中具有影响力的职位。博士学位是一种高级学位，需要高水平的教育，热情，独立和奉献。被录取的学生很可能已经获得了相关学科的学位水平的资格，并希望发展自己的技能以追求新的信息安全分支。该学位可以用作进入公司信息安全研究或学术研究的入口，或者可以作为一种方法来展示候选人的高级技能，而所讲授的课程所不能提供的能力。现在可以
The Information Security Group (ISG) is a world-leading interdisciplinary research group dedicated to research and education in the area of information (cyber) security.<br><br>The ISG comprises more than fifteen full-time academic faculty members, including a mix of computer scientists, mathematicians and social scientists. They are supported by visiting academics, research assistants and a large number of research students, making the ISG one of the largest academic information security teams in the world.<br><br>We also host an EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Cyber Security for the Everyday, which funds a four-year PhD programme (first year of taught training followed by three years of research).<br><br>The ISG has supervised over 200 PhD students, many now holding influential positions in the cyber security industry. The ISG was formed in 1990 with the intent of providing an academic institution which understood and collaborated with government and industry in the area of information security. Today the ISG continues to attract some of the best minds in the world working in the field of cyber security, helping to shape the National Cyber Security Strategy and develop the talent and services of tomorrow.<br><br>Royal Holloway is recognised as a UK Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research (ACE-CSR). Our breadth of coverage, coupled with our size, distinguished educational and academic track record, and long-standing and deep engagement with industry, makes the ISG a unique research group in the UK. The research tradition of the ISG was validated in an ESPRC review of mathematical sciences in the UK which stated that 'UK researchers remain world leaders in information security (Royal Holloway)'.<br><br>From time to time, we make changes to our courses to improve the student and learning experience.
