Cybersecurity: Oxford’s Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre

The Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre (GCSCC) is supported by a grant from the UK’s Foreign & Commonwealth Office and Cabinet Office, along with support from other organizations, and based at the Oxford Martin School, Oxford University. As an Oxford Martin Fellow, I have been a co-chair of the Cultural and Social Dimension of this project since 2013.

I have a short overview along with a video addressing some of the issues concerning the social and cultural dimension of cybersecurity here: https://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/cyber-security/responsible-cyber-culture/
