Watch Professor Lizzie Coles-Kemp talk about "Digital security for all: why an inclusive security approach matters"

Professor Lizzie Coles-Kemp from the Information Security Group at Royal Holloway University delivered an inaugural lecture titled 'Digital security for all: why an inclusive security approach matters'. at Royal Holloway on 11th October 2018. Professor Coles-Kemp argued that that engaging with the protection of digital technology from the viewpoint of the security of people and society creates a more inclusive approach to digital security and a digital security paradigm for everyone. Connecting digital security to a rich history of security theory, she sets out alternative ways of conceptualising digital security and explore what we can learn from such conceptualisations.
