Cyber Security Analytics: Anthropomorphic vs. Technomorphic Interfaces: Their Role in the Attribution of Blame and the Engendering of Trust after Cybe

Lead Research Organisation: Cardiff University
Department Name: Sch of Psychology

Abstract

Even as our ability to counter cyber-attack methods improves, it is inevitable that malevolent cyber-attacks will sometimes break through, either through exploited vulnerabilities of a system, or through user error. Aside from the material losses incurred, such attacks undermine trust that we place in these systems. Safety critical systems such as AVs are particularly vulnerable to loss of trust - as they are still a relatively new technology with relatively little wide-spread mass user experience. Here, the perceived increase to danger may be disproportionate to the reality but it will inevitably prevent the uptake of AVs. Issues of trust may particularly impact schemes by the UK government to roll-out a 'transport revolution' worth £42 billion to the UK economy , and with such technologies being introduced as early as this year .
