Research Themes
Cybercrime
Understanding how people behave, both individually and in groups, is a central research theme for the Socio-Technical Research Group, RISCS’ partner in the NCSC. But this is mostly focused on those people whose intentions are non-malicious and who simply want to do a good job.
Digital Responsibility
As we digitise and connect more of our products and services, we need to ensure that cyber security remains inclusive and that everyone is more secure. This theme will include existing research areas such as digital inclusion, digital disadvantage, digital accessibility, and trust, through a cyber security lens.
Leadership and Culture
