Seniors represent a group that, compared to other groups, lives in a digital exclusion to an excessive extent, mainly due to the fact that they lack the necessary knowledge to use digital technology and digital services. Based on empirical data collected from seniors...

The increase in cyber attacks cause individuals and businesses to face financial loss and reputation damage. Most cyber security studies ignore human factor and focus only on technological measures although the cyber security behaviors of employees are vital for the...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely adopted in various applications such as face detection, speech recognition, machine learning, etc. Due to the lack of theoretical explanation, recent works show that AI is vulnerable to adversarial attacks, especially deep...

This paper builds on previous work and investigates what usability factors users prioritize and what demographic factors that affects the perception of usability factors. This is done through a survey answered by 1452 respondents from Sweden, Italy and UK. The results...

Practitioners’ experience and use of different assessment methods and approaches to establish cyber-security vulnerabilities and risk are evaluated. Qualitative and quantitative methods and data are used for different stages of investigations in order to derive risk...

The world’s technological landscape is continuously evolving with new possibilities, yet also evolving in parallel with the emergence of new threats. Social engineering is of predominant concern for industries, governments and institutions due to the exploitation of...

This work aims to hypothesise a possible holistic architecture for specific human behaviour factors involved in cyber security risks. A good cyber security habit could prevent incidents and protect against attacks. Habits are mostly initiated automatically. Therefore,...

The work aims to build a formal ontology-based model for cyber security risk assessment that considers digital human characteristics. A multi-layered architecture solution was build as a proof of concept to maintain a set of artificial intelligence algorithms and...

The ongoing development and ubiquitous spread of technology has brought with it new threats and opportunities for online victimisation. Although human factors cyber-security research continues to try to mitigate these threats through the application of behavioural...

What is becoming apparent is that we need a better understanding of the human aspects of cyber security not only in terms of its impacts on organisations, communities and individuals but also in terms of how human behaviour itself contributes to cyber security-related...

In this work we carry out a scoping review to investigate the take of the computer science community on the human-centric cyber security paradigm by considering the top conferences on network and computer security for the past six years. Results show that broadly two...

Human factor is widely recognized as the first threat to the security of information systems (ISS). ISS research thus points to the problem of user behavior, which is overwhelmingly represented as a fallibility that would be part of its nature. Companies would...
