Interview Study on Security Practices in Industrial Domains

Student Assistant

Motivation

Current consumer markets and business models involve various organizations that share their data for value creation, indicating that it is crucial to ease reliable trust relationships in digital, networked value creation platforms. Yet, a noticeable gap remains between academic research and practical applications when it comes to security. Therefore, as part of our Data Privacy and Security in Business Environment related project, we find the necessity to investigate the actual security concerns and requirements in markets for trusted data sharing by structured interviews. With these interviews, we aim to gain a better understanding of the current state of data security practices and identify existing concerns and expectations in a secure data-sharing environment.

Your Challenge

In your work, you will:

  • Conduct and transcribe interviews from industry (mainly in English)
  • Identify common topics from the participants’ responses
  • Analyze the results and identify certain trends from response, explore how security is considered in real-world settings

This project will give you research and hands-on experience in the field of data security and sharpen your skills in critical analysis.

Conditions

  • Working time: 7-10 hours per week
  • Start: As soon as possible
