UCS Research Group


Welcome to the UCS – User-Centered Security research group at the h_da Department of Computer Science.

In light of the ongoing digitalization of all aspects of life and work, cybersecurity issues and solutions play a central role. In addition to the end user, this also affects developers, administrators and IT managers, to name a few.

We summarize all these roles under the term user and place the user at the center and as a starting point of our view: User-Centered Security.

Based on this perspective and an interdisciplinary approach, the UCS working group develops ideas to make cybersecurity usable and helpful for the various user groups.
