DiScriBe: Digital Security by Design Social Science Hub+

技术进步已经并将在很大程度上改善网络安全。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。DiScriBe Hub+将世界领先的研究与来自社会科学、专家工作组、网络和敏捷、面向行业的调试的创新方法相结合，不仅将解决ISCF数字设计安全(DSbD)倡议面临的挑战，而且将从根本上重塑社会科学和STEM学科合作应对21世纪设计数字安全挑战的方式。DiScriBe Hub+的核心使命是提供跨学科领导，通过将社会科学连接到很少得到社会科学支持或参与的硬件层，通过设计实现数字安全。这一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+有五种主要方式来实现这一点：1)利用艺术和人文领域的技术与数字业务发展的利益相关者进行一系列深入的接触，以期获得对“通过设计未来实现数字安全”的共同看法；2)开展跨学科研究的创新方案，以提高我们对采用新的安全架构、业务准备水平和采用、监管机会和挑战以及如何在不同部门中体验和理解这些问题的障碍和激励的理解；3)委托一系列敏捷、响应迅速、面向行业的项目和“连接能力”赠款，以应对特定的数字业务发展挑战；4)建立“挑战研究员”网络，其任务是综合研究成果(核心和委托)，将见解与更广泛的数字安全设计倡议联系起来，并确保产生影响，与由行业和研究人员组成的专家工作组一起，以敏锐、集中的方式解决具体问题；以及，5)建立一个由社会科学家、硬件工程师、软件开发人员、行业和政策制定者组成的社区，他们通过设计深度参与将社会技术视角应用于数字安全。DiScriBe的独特之处在于它专注于将安全架构创新与领先的社会科学相结合的好处-并将在将网络安全视为跨学科、社会和技术问题的方式上提供一步改变。许多关于跨学科工作的经验将通过与布里斯托尔数字未来研究所的密切合作得到检验和嵌入--在我们的工作方式在数字未来需要如何改变方面，这笔投资为7000万GB。我们有专家挑战研究员，他们是领导社会科学家首次将他们的工作应用于网络安全。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，这反过来将导致一系列公开呼吁，要求进行面向行业的委托研究。这项研究将既在社会科学领域内在理论上严谨，又保持足够的响应性和敏捷性，以满足更广泛的数字社会发展计划的需要。因此，DiScriBE的主要成果将不仅是一个充满活力的新社区，而且还将是一个可应用于开发和实施与安全相关的新发展的新见解。

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.
