Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity protects the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information and services. Effective protection combines technical safeguards with an understanding of how attacks develop, how evidence can be detected, and how human and organisational factors influence risk.

The work highlighted here spans staged attacks on smart infrastructure, secure communications for unmanned aircraft, digital forensics and information hiding. Related studies examine resilient cloud resource placement and the mitigation of social engineering. This range reflects an interest in layered protection across data, networks, applications and users.
