  • Impact of cybercrime 

  • Preventing online fraud and deception

  • Detecting cybercrime 

The following can be attributed to Professor Phair:

"The Strategy highlights the need for a skilled workforce to solve the cyber security problems of the future. The higher education sector is well placed and stands ready to support the government in this aim.

"Partnerships between academia, business and government will be critical to meeting the goals of the Strategy.  A joined-up approach where all three sectors work together is efficient and effective."
