Evaluating data distribution strategies in federated learning: A trade-off analysis between privacy and performance for IoT security (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Federated learning is an effective approach for training a global machine learning model. It uses locally acquired data without having to share local data with the centralised server. This method provides a machine learning model beneficial for all p...

TRIST: Towards a container-based ICS testbed for cyber threat simulation and anomaly detection (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Cyber-attacks on Industrial Control Systems (ICS), as exemplified by the incidents at the Maroochy water treatment plant and the Ukraine's electric power grid, have demonstrated that cyber threats can inflict significant physical impacts. These incid... Read More about TRIST: Towards a container-based ICS testbed for cyber threat simulation and anomaly detection.

Cyber Funfair: Creating immersive and educational experiences for teaching Cyber Physical Systems Security (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Delivering meaningful and inspiring cyber security education for younger audiences can often be a challenge due to limited expertise and resources. Key to any outreach activity is that it both develops a learner's curiosity, as well as providing educ...

Feature vulnerability and robustness assessment against adversarial machine learning attacks (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Whilst machine learning has been widely adopted for various domains, it is important to consider how such techniques may be susceptible to malicious users through adversarial attacks. Given a trained classifier, a malicious attack may attempt to craf... Read More about Feature vulnerability and robustness assessment against adversarial machine learning attacks.

"Hacking an IoT Home": New opportunities for cyber security education combining remote learning with cyber-physical systems (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic led to a dramatic shift in educational practice, whereby home-schooling and remote working became the norm. Many typical schools outreach projects to encourage uptake of learning cyber security skills therefore we...

Tools and techniques for improving cyber situational awareness of targeted phishing attacks (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2019 IEEE. Phishing attacks continue to be one of the most common attack vectors used online today to deceive users, such that attackers can obtain unauthorised access or steal sensitive information. Phishing campaigns often vary in their level of... Read More about Tools and techniques for improving cyber situational awareness of targeted phishing attacks.

What makes for effective visualisation in cyber situational awareness for non-expert users? (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2019 IEEE. As cyber threats continue to become more prevalent, there is a need to consider how best we can understand the cyber landscape when acting online, especially so for non-expert users. Satellite navigation systems provide the de facto stan... Read More about What makes for effective visualisation in cyber situational awareness for non-expert users?.
