Research project: Cyber Risk Analysis and Threat Assessments from Open Data Sets
Abstract
The primary aim of this research project is to collate diverse open data sets from global sources, and through the advent of data analytics (supported by machine learning techniques), to research, design, implement and test a threat intelligence framework that can be specifically applied to Open Data' so that publishers of can make an informed decisions on the risks associated with the data that they publish.

Biography
I started my career as a Civil Servant working on digital systems that handled official-sensitive and personal data, before changing departments and focusing on open data projects. The former inspired me to undertake my Bachelors of Science at Kingston University in Cyber Security & Computer Forensics with Business.
Whilst working on open data projects I began to consider the risks involved in publishing data freely without licence or usage analytics, and I am now undertaking my PhD project to investigate exactly this subject
