HUST Advances AI Research and Applications in Cybersecurity

On April 16, Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) signed a cooperation agreement between AI4LIFE Research Institute and SafeGate Smart Cyber Security JSC to develop and apply artificial intelligence in cybersecurity.
     
Established in June 2024, AI4LIFE leverages the university’s multidisciplinary strengths to foster regional-scale, cross-disciplinary AI research. With six specialized labs in Machine Learning, Smart Semiconductors, Intelligent Life Sciences, Smart Environment, Intelligent Systems, and Smart Education, the institute connects HUST research groups across fields and promotes global collaboration to develop practical, life-enhancing AI solutions. By 2030, AI4LIFE targets forming at least one world-class research team and becoming a national innovation hub in AI, positioning HUST among Vietnam’s top three innovation centers and a regional leader in ASEAN.
 

To achieve these goals, HUST has partnered with Safe Gate, a company with extensive experience in information security, cloud, big data, and AI, founded by four HUST alumni. The collaboration between HUST’s AI4LIFE Research and Application Institute and Safe Gate promises to deliver high-impact, practical AI solutions that bring positive value to society.
 

Assoc. Prof. Huynh Dang Chinh, Vice President of science and technology of HUST, voiced optimism for a long-term partnership with SafeGate. He hopes to see more successful made-by-HUST tech solutions emerge from collaborations like this one.
 

Echoing the sentiment, Ngo Tuan Anh, President and CEO of SafeGate SCS JSC, said: “As a former HUST student, I’m honored and excited to work alongside the university to create meaningful value for society.”
 
At the ceremony, SafeGate presented their Safe Gate School solution to AI4LIFE as a symbol of the partnership’s promising beginning.
