Dr Daniel Prince is a Senior Lecturer in Security and Protection Science within the School of Computing and Communications. He specialises in Cyber Risk Management and Network Security in complex socio-technical systems, particular cyber physical systems and the financial services sector. He also works closely with organisations to help them understand the economic growth potential or cyber security.
Modern systems are bombarded by a range of threat actors exploiting vulnerabilities within large scale complex systems. Daniel’s research focuses on taking a system thinking empirically-driven approach to considering and formalising the susceptibility of complex socio-technical systems to attacks. The work explores how vulnerabilities emerge and develop in systems and interaction between threat actors and defenders to develop quantitative approaches to understand system security risk management, threat intelligence and informed, secure system design and operation.
