Cyber Security Seminar – Ethics in Cybersecurity: Three Approaches & Their Challenges, Kevin Macnish
This talk gives an overview of the state of the art in research on the ethics of cybersecurity, looking at bottom-up, pragmatist, and top-down approaches to understanding and defining ethical challenges in the field. Each comes with its own drawbacks, which will be examined in this talk. Finally, a combined approach will be advocated, but one which involves a new top-down theory drawing on recent research in the ethics of risk.
Kevin Macnish is Assistant Professor in Philosophy at the University of Twente and Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Leeds. His research is in the ethics of privacy, surveillance and cybersecurity. He has published two books and several articles on surveillance ethics and is the joint author of the chapter on Cybersecurity Ethics in the forthcoming OUP Handbook on Digital Ethics.
