The Frontier AI Security Residency is a fully funded, eight-week in-person research and engineering program held in Cambridge, UK, organized by ERA in partnership with Heron and the Oxford Hardware AI Governance Lab. Students and researchers work directly with expert mentors from leading AI hardware and cybersecurity teams on concrete projects addressing open problems in AI security, model protection, and hardware verification. The program targets engineers and researchers with a strong interest in cybersecurity and hardware verification for frontier artificial intelligence systems. It is one of the most selective and immersive opportunities available for students passionate about the cutting edge of AI safety and security research.

Designing and building physical machines that sense, move, or respond to the world.
Planning and building electronic circuits that power devices and systems.
Designing studies, testing hypotheses, and drawing evidence-based conclusions.
Breaking down a challenge and working through it methodically to a solution.
Evaluating information carefully before drawing a conclusion or making a decision.
Directly tackles cybersecurity projects mitigating frontier AI risks and securing attack surfaces.
Hardware verification and hardware-enabled security are core residency focus areas.
