CYBERSECURITY & SOCIAL SCIENCE

Where Technology Meets Human Behavior

Cybersecurity isn’t just about code and infrastructure. It’s also about people. Our work at the intersection of cybersecurity and social science focuses on how human behavior, decision-making, culture, and social systems influence digital security.

Why It Matters

Many security challenges originate not from technical flaws but from the ways people interact with technology. Understanding how individuals and communities think about risk, trust, and responsibility is essential to building secure and sustainable systems.

What We Explore

• Human-Centered Security: Exploring how users engage with security tools and systems
• Behavioral Insights: Investigating what shapes digital habits and choices
• Trust & Influence: Understanding how people build confidence in digital spaces
• Policy & Ethics: Examining the role of governance, ethics, and social values in shaping cybersecurity outcomes

Bridging the Gap

Our approach brings together insights from psychology, sociology, political science, and computer science to address cybersecurity challenges from both technical and human angles. It’s not just about protecting systems. It’s about supporting the people who use them.
