How prepared are you for a crisis? In this series of articles, we highlight KTH research that contributes to Sweden’s security and resilience. The topics range from IT security, food security, and resilient electricity systems to healthcare in a crisis, drone training, and production challenges.
From waste to food preparedness
In a crisis, Sweden needs to make better use of the resources it already has. KTH researchers are exploring how by-products can be turned into new foods, fertilisers and other inputs – and what is needed for them to contribute to stronger food preparedness in Sweden.

Researchers set to improve AI agents' cyber security capabilities
A research project at KTH aims to improve autonomous AI agents’ ability to carry out so-called penetration testing. The agents are set to become more effective – but also more responsible.

When production is put to the test
A factory doesn’t need to be bombed to be knocked out of action. Power cuts, cyberattacks and supply chain disruptions can halt production. How prepared is Swedish industry for war and crisis? Two KTH production experts identify vulnerabilities and ways to keep production running.
