Work Practices of Cyber Security Professionals

Mon Feb 17 15:27:25 UTC 2014

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a university researcher who is investigating the development of new,
usable tools that will improve the work practices of cyber security
professionals. As a first step to achieve this goal, I am undertaking a
survey to gain an in-depth understanding of the day-to-day activities of
cyber security professionals. The targeted participants for this survey are
those who perform security related activities as a part of their job (e.g.
security analysts, network administrators, penetration testers).

I would be very grateful if you could spare some time and complete this
short (10 minutes) survey for me. It can be accessed at the following link:

If you have questions or concerns about this research, please contact me (
Muhammad.Adnan at gcu.ac.uk) or my Ph.D. supervisor Dr. Mike Just (
Mike.Just at gcu.ac.uk), both at the Interactive and Trustworthy Technologies
research group (http://www.ittgroup.org/), Glasgow Caledonian University,
UK.

Kind regards,
Adnan
