About the course 'Cyber Conflict in International relations'
In cyber security, end-users are often blamed for data leaks, successful attacks and other incidents. This approach of humans as the ‘weakest link’ suggests that cyber threats can be mitigated by focusing on the behaviour of end-users rather than the way information systems are designed. While basic solutions are easily available in the field, their effectiveness is usually not tested. The importance of collecting meaningful data on the effectiveness of cyber security solutions is felt, but the field lacks experts who are able to provide this much sought-after data. In this course, we will focus on the research skill of how to collect meaningful data that provides insights in the effectiveness of behavioural cyber security solutions, to prepare students for the labour market.
