- Software development and architecture
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning
- Web technologies and security
- Cloud computing and virtualization
We promote innovation through the exploration of new technologies and methodologies, and we collaborate with academic and professional institutions to share knowledge and drive forward joint projects.
We maintain comprehensive documentation for all research and development projects. Our members contribute:
- Technical articles and research papers
- Case studies and development reports
- A curated knowledge base accessible to members and, in part, to the public
We also organize:
- Workshops and seminars
- Technical talks and public training sessions
- Community discussions via forums and social platforms
RCE3 plans and hosts a wide range of events:
- Conferences and masterclasses
- Lightning talks (r ümps)
- Public presentations and showcases
We invite experts to share insights and ensure broad outreach through well-organized, high-impact events.
We provide mentorship and support for:
- Student-led “side quests” from the 2600 school
- External research initiatives in line with our mission
This includes technical guidance, methodological support, and access to infrastructure and tools.
We build partnerships with:
- Students and faculty members
- Industry professionals
- Other research institutions and associations
Together, we foster a collaborative ecosystem to develop innovative projects and share expertise across disciplines.
RCE3 contributes to non-academic scientific journals and presents its work at specialized conferences. We invest in:
- Publishing and disseminating our research
- Partnering with platforms and publishers to increase visibility and accessibility
- Promoting cybersecurity knowledge to a broader audience
To fund our activities and remain self-sustaining, RCE3 engages in:
- Paid consulting and cybersecurity expertise services
- Sales of research-based tools or derived products
- Organization of paid events (conferences, trainings, etc.)
- Participation in funded collaborative projects
All revenues are reinvested into the development of our mission and in accordance with French non-profit law.
This GitHub space serves as the central hub for our code, documentation, and ongoing experiments. We welcome contributors, collaborators, and supporters who share our passion for cybersecurity and technological research.
