Thank you very much for this evening! Definitely helped challenge my thinking, and lots of potential research ideas! #CyberSectionChat
A6 There are some good initiative run with schools and students e.g. @Cyber912_UK which assess skill sets, lots of potential to encourage psychologists to become involved here as well I hope! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @BPSCyberPsych
A nice hard question to finish with! Would go with @TheCyberPsyche pre- and post- interventions suggestions! Potential here for regular red-teaming and game theory approaches here as well! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @TheCyberPsyche @BPSCyberPsych
A5 Critical thinking is definitely required! An understanding of what systems can and cannot do would be very beneficial. But potential there for developing a list of critical skills! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @BPSCyberPsych
A5 Definitely beneficial, we need to make sure that we are at the top in this area and not get left behind! I guess to start with a good cyber security awareness! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @Masa_Pop_ @BPSCyberPsych
A4 A very good point! Any advice or research suggestions in this area are most welcome! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @TheCyberPsyche @BPSCyberPsych
I would add ethics as well, how do we ensure that we are using technology ethically in defence & security #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @BPSCyberPsych
A4. I think the big ones here must be trust in technology and the skills and knowledge required for it! Maybe @SPRITEPlus Would have some good advice here! #CyberSectionChat
I would be very interested in hearing more about this! #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @BPSCyberPsych
Am hoping that it can enhance decision support in a lot of operational areas, particularly easing potential burdens on the human #CyberSectionChat
Replying to @TheCyberPsyche @BPSCyberPsych
As our Naval vessels are moving to AI systems there is a strong need for it!
