This is the home page of the ICT4G group.

The ICT4G Group at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler works on methodologies, tools, and techniques for designing and building software applications/systems to address the (digital) society needs. The group's research focus is on System Engineering, Business Process Modeling and Reengineering, and Security Engineering (Security Assessment of complex systems and Web Applications Vulnerability Detection). Have a look at our Research Areas page for more details.

The (longer term) goal of the group is looking at novel ways of using technology to preserve and improve people’s life. More specifically, the unit focuses on how to use ICT for addressing critical problems of societies with low ICT penetration in a way that life is impacted for the better. Notice that with low ICT penetration, we not only refer to developing nations (where the penetration is remarkably low) but also to societies with significant and tangible gaps that could be effectively addressed by the usage of new technologies.
