The Ada Lovelace Lecture 2024
8 October @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Cybersecurity and privacy in crisis situations
Associate Professor Oksana Kulyk, ITU
Ada Lovelace Day is approaching, and the Center for AI Ethics is celebrating Women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by launching The Ada Lovelace Lecture Series. We are honored to have the excellent scholar Oksana Kulyk deliver the inaugural lecture.
Oksana Kulyk is an Associate Professor at the IT University of Copenhagen in the Center of Information Security and Trust. Her research interests include human and societal aspects of cybersecurity and privacy, including but not limited to election security, national security, transparency, and trust.
Abstract
Cybersecurity and privacy have been increasingly recognized as complex issues that require a consideration not only of technical aspects but also of human behavior and broader societal context. Such considerations can be particularly crucial in emergency or crisis situations, where people might lack access, information about, or guidance for established support mechanisms that they would normally rely on for their cybersecurity and privacy-related decisions. In this talk, I will focus on examples of how security and privacy issues affect people in such situations, talking about the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, as well as describing our study on how mortality awareness affects security and privacy concerns.
