Our convictions and values

Agile

At ATHENE, we can react particularly quickly to new challenges and changing threats. We launch research initiatives in a matter of days or weeks, and short coordination paths and flat hierarchies ensure optimal working conditions in an international environment. 

Team

In ATHENE, scientists from various institutions work together with partners from business and administration on exciting cybersecurity topics. We attach great importance to collegial behavior and respectful interaction, because team spirit is the key. 

Equality

Equal opportunity is more than just a buzzword for us. We want to increase the proportion of women in IT security and make their valuable contribution to the development of cybersecurity more visible. ATHENE offers women many support and networking opportunities so that they get the recognition they deserve. 

Work / Life

Work and private life are not mutually exclusive. Flexible working hours, part-time, home office or mobile work? We want you to be able to shape your life the way you want it. Sometimes family comes first and being a dad/mom isn't just for the weekend. We know that and live it every day. 

Impact

Research with impact - Nowhere in Europe are more researchers working together on socially, politically and economically relevant issues of cybersecurity and privacy protection. Together, we are working to make tomorrow's world safer. 

Innovation

Finding answers today to the questions of tomorrow. That's what drives us - every day anew. As a driver of innovation, we develop technologies, transform scientific findings into practical applications and support innovative start-up ideas.
