Technological advances have done, and will do, much to improve cybersecurity. But, a technological approach is only part of the solution - achieving digital security is inherently a socio-technical endeavour. By combining world-leading research with challenge fellows from across the social sciences, expert working groups, innovative approaches to networking and agile, industry-facing commissioning, the DiScriBe Hub+ will not only address the challenges faced by the ISCF Digital Security by Design (DSbD) initiative, but will fundamentally reshape the ways in which social sciences and STEM disciplines work together to address the challenges of digital security by design in the 21st Century.The core missions of the DiScriBe Hub+ are to provide interdisciplinary leadership to realise digital security by design by connecting social science to a hardware layer that rarely receives support or engagement from social science. This social science input will help to unleash the transformational potential that the hardware innovations within Digital Security by Design makes possible. The Hub+ has five main ways of doing this: 1) Running a series of deep engagements with DSbD stakeholders using techniques from the arts and humanities in order to elicit a shared view of 'Digital Security by Design Futures' 2) Conducting an innovative programme of interdisciplinary research to improve our understanding of the barriers and incentives around adoption of new secure architectures, business readiness levels and adoption, regulatory opportunities and challenges, and ways these are experienced and understood across diverse sectors; 3) Commissioning a range of agile, responsive, industry-facing projects and 'connecting capabilities' grants to address specific DSbD challenges; 4) Establishing a network of 'challenge fellows' tasked with synthesising research outcomes (core and commissioned), connecting insights to the wider Digital Security by Design initiative, and ensuring impact, alongside expert working groups comprising industry and researchers to tackle specific problems in a sharp, focussed way; and, 5) Building a community of social scientists, hardware engineers, software developers, industry and policy makers who are deeply engaged in applying a socio-technical lens to digital security by design.DiScriBe is unique in its focus on the benefits of connecting security architecture innovation with leading social science - and will provide a step change in how cybersecurity is treated as an inter-disciplinary, social as well as technical, problem. Many of the lessons on cross disciplinary working will be tested and embedded through close working with the Bristol Digital Futures Institute - a £70m investment in how our ways of working will need to change in the digital future. We have expert challenge fellows who are leading social scientists applying their work to cybersecurity for the first time. These fellows will also lead working groups on specific topics connecting industry, policy and academia, which in turn will lead to a range of open calls for commissioned industry-facing research. This research will be both theoretically rigorous within social science, while also remaining responsive and agile enough to meet the needs of the wider DSbD programme. As a consequence, a major outcome of DiScriBE will not only be a vibrant, new community, but novel insights that can be applied to the development and implementation of new security-related developments.

技术进步已经并将大大改善网络安全。但是，技术方法只是解决方案的一部分-实现数字安全本质上是一项社会技术努力。通过将世界领先的研究与来自社会科学领域的挑战研究员、专家工作组、创新的网络方法以及面向行业的敏捷调试相结合，DiScribe Hub+不仅将解决ISCF数字安全设计（DSbD）计划面临的挑战，但将从根本上重塑社会科学和STEM学科合作的方式，以通过设计应对数字安全的挑战DiScribe Hub+的核心使命是提供跨学科的领导力，通过将社会科学与很少得到社会科学支持或参与的硬件层连接起来，通过设计实现数字安全。这种社会科学投入将有助于释放数字安全设计中的硬件创新所带来的变革潜力。Hub+有五种主要的方法来做到这一点：1）使用艺术和人文技术与DSbD利益相关者进行一系列深入的接触，以获得“未来设计的数字安全”的共同观点2）开展跨学科研究的创新计划，以提高我们对采用新安全架构，业务准备水平和采用的障碍和激励措施的理解，监管机遇和挑战，以及不同行业对这些机遇和挑战的体验和理解方式; 3）委托一系列灵活、响应迅速、面向行业的项目和“连接能力”赠款，以应对特定的DSbD挑战; 4）建立一个“挑战研究员”网络，负责综合研究成果（核心和委托），将见解与更广泛的数字安全设计计划联系起来，并确保影响力，与由行业和研究人员组成的专家工作组一起，以尖锐，集中的方式解决具体问题; 5）建立一个由社会科学家、硬件工程师、软件开发人员DiScribe是一家致力于将社会技术透镜应用于数字安全设计的行业和政策制定者。DiScribe专注于将安全架构创新与领先的社会科学联系起来的好处，并将在如何将网络安全视为一个跨学科、社会和技术问题方面提供一个步骤性变化。许多关于跨学科工作的经验教训将通过与布里斯托数字期货研究所的密切合作进行测试和嵌入-这是一项7000万英镑的投资，用于研究我们的工作方式在数字未来需要如何改变。我们有专家挑战研究员谁是领先的社会科学家将他们的工作首次应用到网络安全。这些研究员还将领导关于连接行业，政策和学术界的特定主题的工作组，这反过来又将导致一系列公开呼吁委托面向行业的研究。这项研究将在社会科学理论上严格，同时也保持足够的反应和敏捷，以满足更广泛的DSbD计划的需求。因此，DiScriBE的主要成果将不仅是一个充满活力的新社区，而且是可以应用于新的安全相关发展的开发和实施的新见解。
