Karen’s research area is Human‐Centred Security. She has carried out two investigations using insights from behavioural economics. The first is a nudge that will persuade people to choose stronger passwords, the second is a study into the endowment effect in cyber security. Karen is a computer scientist and has made the transition from software engineer to behavioural scientist, so her approach is different from that of a traditional economist. She is proposing to share her experiences and get feedback from you.
