HEART-IS: A novel technique for evaluating human error-related information security incidents (2018)
Journal Article
Evans, M., He, Y., Maglaras, L., & Janicke, H. (2019). HEART-IS: A novel technique for evaluating human error-related information security incidents. Computers and Security, 80, 74-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cose.2018.09.002

Organisations continue to suffer information security incidents and breaches as a result of human error even though humans are recognised as the weakest link with regard to information security. Despite this level of understanding organisations conti... Read More about HEART-IS: A novel technique for evaluating human error-related information security incidents.

The industrial control system cyber defence triage process (2017)
Journal Article
Cook, A., Janicke, H., Smith, R., & Maglaras, L. (2017). The industrial control system cyber defence triage process. Computers and Security, 70, 467-481. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cose.2017.07.009

The threat to Industrial Control Systems (ICS) from cyber attacks is widely acknowledged by governments and literature. Operators of ICS are looking to address these threats in an effective and cost-sensitive manner that does not expose their operati...
