Human Factors in Cyber Warfare II: Emerging Perspectives

Cyber operations offer a unique environment in which the lines between cognition and technology are constantly blurred. Within the greater research community, current work often focuses solely on the technology, often only acknowledging the human in passing, if at all. More recently, the Human Factors community has begun to address human-centered issues in cyber operations, but in comparison to technological communities, we have yet to scratch the surface. Even with publications on Cyber Human Factors gaining momentum, we still lack a complete and holistic understanding of the domain itself, creating a major gap in the field. The purpose of this panel is to continue to expand the role Human Factors in cyber research by introducing the community to current work being done, and to facilitate collaborations to drive future research. We have assembled a panel of scientists across multiple specializations in the Human Factors community to have an open discussion on how we can leverage previous work in human fa...
