Securing Knowledge Processes in Organisations. This project will develop a methodology for identifying and comparing security risks associated with knowledge-intensive processes in organizations. The project addresses a significant area that has historically fallen between two research domains: organisational knowledge processes and systems, and critical information infrastructure protection. The project will establish a unified framework to balance the sharing and protection of information and ....Securing Knowledge Processes in Organisations. This project will develop a methodology for identifying and comparing security risks associated with knowledge-intensive processes in organizations. The project addresses a significant area that has historically fallen between two research domains: organisational knowledge processes and systems, and critical information infrastructure protection. The project will establish a unified framework to balance the sharing and protection of information and organizational knowledge. Outcomes include a framework for modelling knowledge-intensive processes to assess their security vulnerability, an associated methodology of creating security risk profiles of knowledge intensive processes and the validation of the methodology in 3 to 6 organizations.Read moreRead less
Enhancing privacy preserving in dynamic cyberspace. This project aims to develop a novel infrastructure operational monitoring and management strategy to reduce the redundant maintenance actions and achieve a cost-effective approach for civil infrastructure asset management. The project will use multiple social networks as a platform for the project, with the potential for the results to be extended to any dynamic cyberspace. Project outcomes will include a set of new analysis theories and tools ....Enhancing privacy preserving in dynamic cyberspace. This project aims to develop a novel infrastructure operational monitoring and management strategy to reduce the redundant maintenance actions and achieve a cost-effective approach for civil infrastructure asset management. The project will use multiple social networks as a platform for the project, with the potential for the results to be extended to any dynamic cyberspace. Project outcomes will include a set of new analysis theories and tools to facilitate government, companies, individuals, and organisations to enhance their information gathering and privacy-preserving capabilities. This is expected to enhance the credibility of the government and organisations and save the possible financial loss of companies and individuals.Read moreRead less
Privacy preservation for personalised smart devices. The goal of this project is to build a privacy preservation framework for personalised smart devices with both immediate and long-term applications in a range of industries. The novel theoretical contributions include a privacy-preservation mechanism that guards against attacks by intelligent tools, a model and metrics that distinguish between object detection and object recognition, and allowing users to specify their desired level of privacy ....Privacy preservation for personalised smart devices. The goal of this project is to build a privacy preservation framework for personalised smart devices with both immediate and long-term applications in a range of industries. The novel theoretical contributions include a privacy-preservation mechanism that guards against attacks by intelligent tools, a model and metrics that distinguish between object detection and object recognition, and allowing users to specify their desired level of privacy guarantee. Practically, these solutions have clear economic and public-safety benefits. The solutions will accelerate AI device development, advance smart technologies based on individual behaviours, and guarantee personal data privacy against both human attackers and adversarial algorithms.
