In this course, Professor Lizzie Coles-Kemp examines the place of cybersecurity in society. Professor Coles-Kemp first details the societal impact of cybersecurity issues and introduces the concept of people-centered cybersecurity, building on theories of useable security and user-centered design. Professor Coles-Kemp then outlines an approach to local community engagement that challenges security orthodoxies and recognizes the realities of working with diverse, marginalized, and minoritized groups. The course ends with a case study of the cybersecurity aspects of informal assisted access to digital technologies.
