As data breaches occur more frequently and the associated costs continue to rise, cybersecurity is becoming increasingly critical to every company in the world. To help its customers safeguard their data, the Cybersecurity R&D Lab, operating as part of EPAM’s network of Garages, will contribute to global cybersecurity community research and complement EPAM’s capabilities across a range of information security domains.

These challenges become especially pressing as the areas of Infrastructure, Cloud and Application Development converge into blended models of developing and delivering products and services. By focusing our efforts in this urgent and diverse area, and opening up the research to partners, clients and leading experts in the field, we are creating a much more expansive and deep capability in cybersecurity.”
