Focus areas
SRI’s Computer Science Laboratory develops leading-edge tools and methods for areas including computer security, high-assurance systems, advanced user interfaces, computer networking, robotics, biotechnology and nanotechnology.
Cyber security
We improve the security of critical infrastructures that support power grids, refineries, financial systems, telecommunications and the Internet.
Formal methods
SRI is a world leader in formal verification of computer systems. We build and offer specifications for high-assurance systems software and hardware.
Bioinformatics and computational biology
We apply computational methods to study and develop tools, software, databases and ontologies to manage and analyze high-throughput, heterogeneous biological data.
Cyberspace operations
We develop solutions that enable computer network attack, computer network exploitation, and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
