Techniques for determining and applying security decisions typically follow risk-based analytical approaches where alternative options are put forward and weighed in accordance to risk severity metrics based on goals and context. The reasoning or val... Read More about Rationalising decision-making about risk: a normative approach..

When independent systems come together as a System of Systems (SoS) to achieve a new purpose, dealing with requirements conflicts across systems becomes a challenge. Moreover, assessing and modelling security risk for independent systems and the SoS... Read More about Assessing system of systems security risk and requirements with OASoSIS..

Conference Proceeding
COLES, J., FAILY, S. and KI-ARIES, D. 2018. Tool-supporting data protection impact assessments with CAIRIS. In Beckers, K., Faily, S., Lee, S.-W. and Mead, N. (eds.) Proceedings of the 5th International workshop on evolving security and privacy requirements engineering (ESPRE 2018), 20 August 2018, Banff, Canada. Los Alamitos: IEEE Computer Society [online], pages 21-27. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1109/ESPRE.2018.00010

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) encourages the use of Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) to integrate privacy into organisations' activities and practices from early design onwards. To date, however, there has been little prescr... Read More about Tool-supporting data protection impact assessments with CAIRIS..

Redesigning an undergraduate software engineering course for a large cohort. (2018)
Conference Proceeding
IACOB, C. and FAILY, S. 2018. Redesigning an undergraduate software engineering course for a large cohort. In Proceedings of the 40th ACM/IEEE international conference on software engineering: software engineering education and training (ICSE-SEET 2018), 27 May - 3 June 2018, Gothenburg, Sweden. New York: ACM [online], pages 163-171. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1145/3183377.3183381

Teaching Software Engineering on an undergraduate programme is challenging, particularly when dealing with large numbers of students. On one hand, a strong understanding of software and good programming skills are prerequisites. On the other hand, th...

Available from: https://doi.org/10.1109/SYSOSE.2018.8428765

System of Systems (SoS) is a term often used to describe the coming together of independent systems, collaborating to achieve a new or higher purpose. However, clarity is needed when using this term given that operational areas may be unfamiliar with... Read More about System of systems characterisation assisting security risk assessment..

Research on decision-making during risk and uncertainty facilitates risk-based decision-making, by understanding techniques that decision-makers use to arrive at informed decisions. Approaches to the research usually involve a mix of cognitive techni... Read More about Qualitative adaptation: informing design for risk-based decision-making..

Eliciting persona characteristics for risk-based decision making. (2018)
Conference Proceeding
M'MANGA, A., FAILY, S., MCALANEY, WILLIAMS, C., KADOBAYASHI, Y. and MIYAMOTO, D. 2018. Eliciting persona characteristics for risk-based decision making. In Proceedings of the 32nd International BCS human computer interaction conference (HCI 2018), 4-6 July 2018, Belfast, UK. Swindon: BCS [online], article number 158.
