Ali Padyab is an associate professor (Docent) of Cybersecurity and the program coordinator of Masters in Privacy, Information, and Cyber Security at the School of Informatics, University of Skövde. My research focuses on privacy and cybersecurity threats targeting organizations and individuals. My doctoral thesis explored how individuals' privacy attitudes concerning the secondary use of information are formed and how secondary use impacts individuals' privacy.
I have been involved in various projects focusing on developing privacy-enhancing tools and technologies (PETs) to enhance individual privacy. My other line of research concentrates on IoT privacy, information security management, cloud risk management, the challenges of managing information security when teleworking, and cyber threat intelligence aided by artificial intelligence. I am currently involved in a research project investigating cybercrime's socio-economic and technological determinants funded by VR.
