Covid-19 is a catalyst for change for numerous risks. To flatten the curve, businesses and homes shut their doors to the outside world and moved online at an unprecedented rate. In response, the global economy must now reassess and reimagine modes of consumption, supply, interaction, productivity and, last but not least - security. Countering cyber threats successfully requires a focus on human behaviour as well as technology enhancement. This networking webinar brings together two academic experts to look at both digital security by design and human factors, and will review key areas of concern for cyberrisk altered by Covid-19 and their long term effects.

SPEAKERS PROFILES:
Prof Simon Moore from the Department for Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge, conducts research and teaching in the general area of computer architecture with particular interests in secure and rigorously-engineered processors and subsystems, such as memory-protection features that safeguard against many currently widely exploited vulnerabilities. He is a leading contributor to the CHERI project (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) for digital security by design.
Dr Jennifer Daffron leads the research on digital risk at the Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies. Her research defines and exposes cyber threat vulnerabilities on organisational and human behavioural platforms for companies around the world. Jennifer holds a PhD in Experimental Psychology from the University of Cambridge and has published several papers on attentional templates in visual search.
