Cybersecurity Research Trends

The field of cybersecurity is moving towards a more standardized and credible approach to threat intelligence and risk analysis. Researchers are working to develop frameworks and methodologies for normalizing and integrating threat actor names, as well as evaluating the credibility of cybersecurity ontologies. Graphical threat models are also being developed and assessed for their acceptability and usefulness for users with limited technical backgrounds. Additionally, the evolution of SmartNICs and their applications is being explored, and taxonomies are being developed to understand and address Technology-Facilitated Abuse. Noteworthy papers include: Hesperus is Phosphorus, which introduces a methodology for normalizing and integrating threat actor names, and A Taxonomy-Driven Case Study of Australian Web Resources Against Technology-Facilitated Abuse, which develops a unified taxonomy of Technology-Facilitated Abuse and audits institutional web resources in Australia.
