Abstract:
L'integrazione tra Intelligenza Artificiale e Cybersecurity nasce per migliorare l'efficienza, la crescita e la possibilità di rendere sicuro un sistema col minore sforzo, perchè si creino già sistemi di protezione "intelligenti" in grado quindi di essere autonomi nel scovare nuovi attacchi e aggiornarsi, analizzare centinaia e centinaia di dati, traffico e prendere delle decisioni. Analizzerò separatamente diversi concetti di Cybersecurity, I.A. e come sia possibile integrare quest'ultima al fine di innalzare i livelli di sicurezza; si mostrerà anche un esempio pratico di un software (Attack

Abstract:
As organizations have become more reliant on computers and technology to operate in a globalized world, they have also become more vulnerable to cyberattacks on their networks. The expense to organizations from cyberattacks now exceeds $400 billion USD annually. These costs highlight the need for behavioral research in the cyber domain. The first phase of this research developed an instrument to measure workers’ cybersecurity attitudes. An iterative process resulted in a scale with good psychometric properties - The Cybersecurity Attitudes Scale. The scale measures two factors: cyber policy ad

Abstract:
Organizational information system users (OISU) that are victimized by cyber threats are contributing to major financial and information losses for individuals, businesses, and governments. Moreover, it has been argued that cybersecurity competency is critical for advancing economic prosperity and maintaining national security. The fact remains that technical cybersecurity controls may be rendered useless due to a lack of cybersecurity competency of OISUs. All OISUs, from accountants to cybersecurity forensics experts, can place organizational assets at risk. However, that risk is increased whe

Abstract:
The development of fundamental human rights contained in the texts of the Universal Declarations and the Constitutions of democratic states requires that information systems that support its exercise are permanently operational. However, this need is constantly violated by many cyberattacks that, in the heart of the matter, seek to undermine the free exercise of such rights. It is in this environment where public cybersecurity, understood as the set of legal regulations, methods, procedures and tools, finds its reason for being and is configured as the only appropriate means of ensuring social

Abstract:
The ever-evolving nature of botnets have made constant malware collection an absolute necessity for security researchers in order to analyze and investigate the latest, nefarious means by which bots exploit their targets and operate in concert with each other and their bot master. In that effort of on-going data collection, honeypots have established themselves as a curious and useful tool for deception-based security. Low-powered devices, such as the Raspberry Pi, have found a natural home with some categories of honeypots and are being embraced by the honeypot community. Due to the low co

Abstract:
The field of cybersecurity is relatively uncharted by rhetoricians and sociologists but nevertheless laden with terminological assumptions, violent metaphors, and ethical conflicts. This study explores the discourse surrounding the morally contentious practice of hackers selling software vulnerabilities to third parties instead of disclosing them to the affected technology companies. Drawing on grounded theory, I utilize a combination of quantitative word-level analysis and qualitative coding to assess how notions of right and wrong on this topic are framed by three groups: 1) the hackers them

Abstract:
Cybersecurity classes focus on building practical skills alongside the development of the open mindset that is essential to tackle the dynamic cybersecurity landscape. Unfortunately, traditional lecture-style teaching is insufficient for this task. Peer instruction is a non-traditional, active learning approach that has proven to be effective in computer science courses. The challenge in adopting peer instruction is the development of conceptual questions. This thesis presents a methodology for developing peer instruction questions for cybersecurity courses, consisting of four stages: concept

Abstract:
The logistics industry is benefiting from the fast-growing cyberspace, but is also increasing its exposure to cyberattacks. Interest in cybersecurity in logistics and supply chain management has grown, but this has not been matched by academic research. This thesis aims to develop a methodology to enhance cybersecurity in an interdependent digital logistics network. The methodology proposed in this thesis consists of three stages: The precautionary planning stage, the real-time recovery planning stage and the aftermath recovery planning stage. In the precautionary planning stage, this study

Abstract:
Bhutan is an emerging country with transitioning economy with a vision to become an ICT knowledge-based information society. Many government organizations, businesses and individuals are adopting the Internet for day to day operations and activities. With increasing dependency on information systems, networks, and the Internet; securing and protecting Bhutan’s cyberspace from malicious attackers and cyber criminals is a serious concern. Few scholarly studies related to cybersecurity have been conducted in developing countries. No scholarly and empirical research has been conducted in Bhutan
