- Additional information
- First study to identify that mobile app developers rarely reason about security when writing software - and critically when they do so, it is only when they focus one code and not other software development activities, e.g., choosing advertisement libraries or testing which also have a major impact. Collaboration with Google (Anthonysamy; co-author); lecture at first UK PhD Winter School on Cyber Security (120 attendees); seminar at University of York; part of panel discussion at RISCS Secure Development Workshop (online); feeding into policy through Secure Development Practices theme in RISCS: EPSRC-NCSC Research Institute on Sociotechnical Cyber Security.
